Two-step formulation of magnetic nanoprobes for microRNA capture.
Article in RSC advances, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
MicroRNAs (miRs) belong to a family of short non-coding endogenous RNAs. Their over-expression correlates with various pathologies: for instance, miRNA-155 (miR-155) is over-expressed upon the development of breast cancers. However, the detection of miRs as disease biomarkers suffers from insufficient sensitivity. In the present study, we propose a protocol for a rapid and efficient generation of magnetic nanoprobes able to capture miR-155, with the aim of increasing its concentration. As a nanoprobe precursor, we first synthesized superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) coated with covalently attached polyethylene glycol carrying a free biotin terminus (PEG-bi). Using streptavidin-biotin interactions, the nanoprobes were formulated by functionalizing the surface of the nanoparticles with the miR sequence (CmiR) complementary to the target miR-155 (TmiR). The two-step formulation was optimized and validated using several analytical techniques, in particular with Size-Exclusion High Performance Liquid Chromatography (SE-HPLC). Finally, the proof of the nanoprobe affinity to TmiR was made by demonstrating the TmiR capture on model solutions, with the estimated ratio of 18 : 22 TmiR : CmiR per nanoprobe. The nanoprobes were confirmed to be stable after incubation in serum.
