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

Cysteamine-coated gold nanoparticles (cysAuNPs) are positively charged as-synthesised and hence can interact with negatively charged DNA with ease. We have investigated the dependency of the particles' dispersion stage on different concentrations of lysozyme-binding aptamer (LBA). On top of the commonly reported phenomenon where cysAuNPs aggregate as the concentration of LBA increases, we observed that cysAuNPs redispersed after the amount of LBA achieved a certain threshold, dubbed as the critical redispersion concentration (CRC). By harnessing the aggregation and dispersion behaviour of cysAuNPs at LBA below and above the CRC, respectively, we have demonstrated a bimodal colorimetric aptasensor to detect lysozyme as a proof-of-concept study. Apart from being able to quantify the lysozyme in different ranges of concentrations with a visual change in colour, this aptasensor also demonstrated a novel concept of inverse sensitivity (
