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

Worldwide infection due to SARS-CoV-2 revealed that short-time and extremely high-sensitivity detection of nucleic acids is a crucial technique for human beings. Polymerase chain reactions have been mainly used for the SARS-CoV-2 detection over the years. However, an advancement in quantification of the detection and shortening runtime is important for present and future use. Here, we report a rapid detection scheme that is a combination of nucleic acid amplification and a highly efficient fluorescence biosensor, that is, a metasurface biosensor composed of a pair of an all-dielectric metasurface and a microfluidic transparent chip. In the present scheme, we show a series of proof-of-concept experimental results that the metasurface biosensors detected amplicons originating from attomolar SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acids and that the amplification was implemented within 1 h. Furthermore, this detection capability substantially satisfies an official requirement of 100 RNA copies/140 μL, which is a criterion for the reliable infection tests.
