A versatile bioelectronic interface programmed for hormone sensing.
Article in Nature communications, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Precision medicine requires smart, ultrasensitive, real-time profiling of bio-analytes using interconnected miniaturized devices to achieve individually optimized healthcare. Here, we report a versatile bioelectronic interface (VIBE) that senses signaling-cascade-guided receptor-ligand interactions via an electronic interface. We show that VIBE offers a low detection limit down to sub-nanomolar range characterised by an output current that decreases significantly, leading to precise profiling of these peptide hormones throughout the physiologically relevant concentration ranges. In a proof-of-concept application, we demonstrate that the VIBE platform differentiates insulin and GLP-1 levels in serum samples of wild-type mice from type-1 and type-2 diabetic mice. Evaluation of human serum samples shows that the bioelectronic device can differentiate between samples from different individuals and report differences in their metabolic states. As the target analyte can be changed simply by introducing engineered cells overexpressing the appropriate receptor, the VIBE interface has many potential applications for point-of-care diagnostics and personalized medicine via the internet of things.
