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

For the first time, nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorus, and boron-doped carbon dots (N, S, P, B-codoped CDs) were synthesized through a hydrothermal reaction. The produced CDs were utilized to develop an optical sensor to determine methotrexate (MTX) in cell lysates and patients' plasma samples. Basically, in the presence of MTX, the fluorescence emission of the CD-based probe was quenched. Under optimum conditions, a good proportional relationship was obtained between the quenched fluorescence signal and MTX concentrations from 74.9 ng/mL to 99.9 µg/mL with a limit of detection of 74.9 ng/mL. The developed nanoprobe provided a wide linear range and high accuracy and was successfully utilized in the routine therapeutic drug monitoring of MTX in plasma samples. The obtained results proposed the developed nanoprobe for the on-time and specific detection of MTX in blood samples. As another application, N, S, P, B-codoped CDs were utilized for bioimaging MCF-7 cancer cells and could be proposed as efficient bioimaging agents for tumor cells.
