A fully-enclosed prototype 'pen' for rapid detection of SARS-CoV-2 based on RT-RPA with dipstick assay at point-of-care testing.

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
A fully-enclosed prototype 'pen' for rapid detection of SARS-CoV-2 based on reverse transcriptase isothermal recombinase polymerase amplification (RT-RPA) with dipstick assay was developed. The integrated handheld device, consisting of amplification, detection and sealing modules, was developed to perform rapid nucleic acid amplification and detection under a fully enclosed condition. After RT-RPA amplification with a metal bath or a normal PCR instrument, the amplicons were mixed with dilution buffer prior to being detected on a lateral flow strip. To avoid aerosol contamination causing false-positive, from amplification to final detection, the detection 'pen' had been enclosed to isolate from the environment. With colloidal gold strip-based detection, the detection results could be directly observed by eyes. By cooperating with other inexpensive and rapid methods for POC nucleic acid extraction, the developed 'pen' could detect COVID-19 or other infectious diseases in a convenient, simple and reliable way.
