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

Rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) offer valuable diagnostic information in a quick, easy-to-use and low-cost format. While RDTs are one of the most commonly used tools for in vitro diagnostic testing, they require the collection of a blood sample, which is painful, poses risks of infection and can lead to complications. We introduce a blood-free point-of-care diagnostic test for the rapid detection of protein biomarkers in dermal interstitial fluid (ISF). This device consists of a lateral flow immunochromatographic assay (LFIA) integrated within a microfluidic skin patch. ISF is collected from the skin using a microneedle array and vacuum-assisted extraction system integrated in the patch, and transported through the lateral flow strip via surface tension. Using this skin patch platform, we demonstrate in situ detection of anti-tetanus toxoid IgG and SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibodies, which could be accurately detected in human ISF in <20 min. We envision that this device can be readily modified to detect other protein biomarkers in dermal ISF, making it a promising tool for rapid diagnostic testing.
