What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The qualitative and quantitative determination of marker protein is of great significance in the life sciences and in medicine. Here, we developed an electrochemical DNA biosensor for protein detection based on DNA self-assembly and the terminal protecting effects of small-molecule-linked DNA. This strategy is demonstrated using the small molecule biotin and its receptor protein streptavidin (SA). We immobilized DNA with a designed structure and sequence on the surface of the gold electrode, and we named it M1-Biotin DNA. M1-Biotin DNA selectively combines with SA to generate M1-Biotin-SA DNA and protects M1-Biotin DNA from digestion by EXO III; therefore, M1-Biotin DNA remains intact on the electrode surface. M1-Biotin-SA DNA was modified with methylene blue (MB); the MB reporter molecule is located near the surface of the gold electrode, which generates a substantial electrochemical signal during the detection of SA. Through this strategy, we can exploit the presence or absence of an electrochemical signal to provide qualitative target protein determination as well as the strength of the electrochemical signal to quantitatively analyze the target protein concentration. This strategy has been proven to be used for the quantitative analysis of the interaction between biotin and streptavidin (SA). Under optimal conditions, the detection limit of the proposed biosensor is as low as 18.8 pM, and the linear range is from 0.5 nM to 5 μM, showing high sensitivity. The detection ability of this DNA biosensor in complex serum samples has also been studied. At the same time, we detected the folate receptor (FR) to confirm that this strategy can be used to detect other proteins. Therefore, this electrochemical DNA biosensor provides a sensitive, low-cost, and fast target protein detection platform, which may provide a reliable and powerful tool for early disease diagnosis.
