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

The emerging pandemic of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) critically challenges early and accurate virus diagnoses. However, the current gold standard for SARS-CoV-2 detection, reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), has reportedly failed to detect low-viral loads. One compound, graphene oxide (GO), which adsorbs single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), has been widely applied in molecular pathogen detection. This study presents a highly sensitive GO-multiplex qPCR method for simultaneous detection of two SARS-CoV-2 genes (RdRP and E) and one reference gene (RNase P). In a GO-multiplex qPCR system, GO pre-absorbs each forward primer to form specific GO-forward primer composites before entering the amplification system. Target gene amplification is confined within the primer-enriched composites, thus, improving the sensitivity of the assay. Compared to conventional multiplex qPCR, GO-multiplex qPCR reduces the limit of detection by 10-fold to 10 copies/reaction. Hence, the GO-multiplex qPCR assay can be effectively used for SARS-CoV-2 detection.
