1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Nucleic acid enzymes (NAzymes) are a class of nucleic acid molecules with catalytic activity, which can be modulated by the presence of different species such as metal ions, genetic biomarkers, small molecules or proteins, among others. NAzymes offer several important advantages for development of novel bioanalytical strategies, resulting from their functionality as specific recognition elements and as amplified analytical signal generators, making them ideal candidates for developing highly specific bioanalytical strategies for the detection of a wide variety of targets. When coupled with the exceptional features of inorganic nanoparticles (NPs), the sensitivity of the assays can be significantly improved, allowing the detection of targets using many different detection techniques including visual readout, spectrophotometry, fluorimetry, electrochemiluminescence, voltammetry, and single-particle inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry. Here we provide an overview of the fundamentals of novel strategies developed to achieve analytical signal amplification based on the use of NAzymes coupled with inorganic NPs. Some representative examples of such strategies for the highly sensitive detection of different targets will be presented, including metal ions, proteins, DNA- or RNA-based biomarkers, and small molecules or microorganisms. Furthermore, future prospective challenges will be discussed.
