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 SARS-CoV-2 spreading rapidly has aroused catastrophic public healthcare issues and economy crisis worldwide. It plays predominant role to rapidly and accurately diagnose the virus for effective prevention and treatment. As an abundant transmembrane protein, spike protein (SP) is one of the most valuable antigenic biomarkers for diagnosis of COVID-19. Herein a phage expression of WNLDLSQWLPPM peptide specific to SARS-CoV-2 SP was screened. Molecular docking revealed that the isolated peptide binds to major antigenic epitope locating at S2 subunit with hydrogen bonding. Taking the specific peptide as antigen sensing probe and tyramine signal amplification (TSA), an ultrasensitive "peptide-antigen-antibody" ELISA (p-ELISA) was explored, by which the limit of detection (LOD) was 14 fM and 2.8 fM SARS-CoV-2 SP antigen for first TSA and secondary TSA, respectively. Compared with the LOD by the p-ELISA by direct mode, the sensitivity with 2nd TSA enhanced 100 times. Further, the proposed p-ELISA method can detect SARS-CoV-2 pseudoviruses down to 10 and 3 TCID
