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

In the wake of a pandemic, the development of rapid, simple, and accurate molecular diagnostic tests can significantly aid in reducing the spread of infections. By combining particle imaging with molecular assays, a quick and highly sensitive biosensor can readily identify a pathogen at low concentrations. Here, we implement functionalized particle-enabled rotational diffusometry in combination with loop-mediated isothermal amplification for the rapid detection of the SARS-CoV-2 nsp2 gene in the recombinant plasmid as a proof of concept for COVID-19 diagnostics. By analyzing the images of blinking signals generated by these modified particles, the change in micro-level viscosity due to nucleic acid amplification was measured. The high sensitivity of rotational diffusometry enabled facile detection within 10 min, with a limit of detection of 70 ag/μL and a sample volume of 2 μL. Tenfold higher detection sensitivity was observed for rotational diffusometry in comparison with real-time PCR. In addition, the system stability and the effect of temperature on rotational diffusometric measurements were studied and reported. These results demonstrated the utility of a rotational diffusometric platform for the rapid and sensitive detection of SARS-CoV-2 cDNA fragments.
