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

Aptamers are synthetic single-stranded nucleic acid molecules that bind to biochemical targets with high affinity and specificity. The method of systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) is widely used to isolate aptamers from randomized oligonucleotides. Recently, microfluidic technology has been applied to improve the efficiency and reduce the cost in SELEX processes. In this work, we present an approach that exploits surface acoustic waves to improve the affinity selection process in microfluidic SELEX. Acoustic streaming is used to enhance the interactions of the solution-based oligonucleotide molecules with microbead-immobilized target molecules, allowing the identification of high-affinity aptamer candidates in a more efficient manner. For demonstration, a DNA aptamer is isolated within three rounds of selection in 5 h to specifically bind to immunoglobulin E, a representative target protein, with an equilibrium dissociation constant of approximately 22.6 nM.
