Methods of optical spectroscopy in detection of virus in infected samples: A review.
Review in Heliyon, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Due to the recent COVID-19 pandemic that occurred worldwide since 2020, scientists and researchers have been studying methods to detect the presence of the virus causing COVID-19 disease, namely SARS-CoV-2. Optical spectroscopy is a method that employs the interaction of light in detecting virus on samples. It is a promising method that might help in detecting the presence of SARS-CoV-2 in samples. Four optical spectroscopy methods are discussed in this paper: ultraviolet (UV), infrared (IR), Raman spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy. UV and IR spectroscopy differ in wavelength range (less than 400 nm for UV, more than 700 nm for IR). Raman spectroscopy involves shift in wavelength due to scattering of light. Fluorescence spectroscopy involves difference in wavelength between absorbed and emitted light due to vibrational relaxation. These four methods had been proven to differentiate healthy samples from virus-infected samples. UV spectroscopy is useful in determining presence of virus based on 260 nm/280 nm absorbance ratio. However, its usefulness is limited due to its destructive properties on virus at sufficiently high intensity. Meanwhile, IR spectroscopy has becoming popular in studies involving virus samples. Mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopy is most commonly used among IR spectroscopy as it usually provides useful information directly from spectral data. Near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy is also used in studying virus samples, but additional methods such as principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least squares (PLS) are required to process raw spectral data and to identify molecules based on spectral peaks. On the other hand, Raman spectroscopy is useful because spectral data can be analyzed directly in identifying vibrational modes of specific molecules in virus samples. Fluorescence spectroscopy relies on interaction between viral particles and fluorescent tags for the detection of virus based on improvement or quenching of fluorescent signal. Due to non-invasive properties of virus samples, IR, Raman and fluorescence spectroscopy will be used more often in future studies involving virus detection in infected samples.
