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

Point-of-care real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) facilitates the widespread use of rapid, accurate, and cost-effective near-patient testing that is available to the public. Here, we report ultrafast plasmonic nucleic acid amplification and real-time quantification for decentralized molecular diagnostics. The plasmonic real-time RT-PCR system features an ultrafast plasmonic thermocycler (PTC), a disposable plastic-on-metal (PoM) cartridge, and an ultrathin microlens array fluorescence (MAF) microscope. The PTC provides ultrafast photothermal cycling under white-light-emitting diode illumination and precise temperature monitoring with an integrated resistance temperature detector. The PoM thin film cartridge allows rapid heat transfer as well as complete light blocking from the photothermal excitation source, resulting in real-time and highly efficient PCR quantification. Besides, the MAF microscope exhibits close-up and high-contrast fluorescence microscopic imaging. All of the systems were fully packaged in a palm size for point-of-care testing. The real-time RT-PCR system demonstrates the rapid diagnosis of coronavirus disease-19 RNA virus within 10 min and yields 95.6% of amplification efficiency, 96.6% of classification accuracy for preoperational test, and 91% of total percent agreement for clinical diagnostic test. The ultrafast and compact PCR system can decentralize point-of-care molecular diagnostic testing in primary care and developing countries.
