A PCR-free screen-printed magnetic electrode for the detection of circular RNA from hepatocellular cancer based on a back-splice junction.
Article in RSC advances, 2021. 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
Circular RNA (circRNA) has the potential to be applied to disease diagnosis and therapy. However, the currently available circRNA detection techniques are limited. This work proposes a sensitive and selective approach for circRNA detection based on gold nanoparticle-modified screen-printed magnetic electrodes (AuNPs-SPME). Magnetic beads (MBs) with capture probes based on specific back-splice junction (BSJ) sites were employed to identify and selectively isolate the target circRNA, which could be directly adsorbed onto the AuNPs-SPME. Then, the circRNA attached to the surface was detected by changes in the methylene blue redox signal. The simple and time-saving AuNPs-SPME is highly sensitive (LOD = 1.0 pM) to circCDYL, one of the biomarkers of hepatocellular cancer (HCC). The analytical performance of the method presented has also been verified in human serum samples, holding great promise for clinical diagnosis.
