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

Proteins are important biological macromolecules that perform a wide variety of functions in the cell and human body, and can serve as important biomarkers for early diagnosis and prognosis of human diseases as well as monitoring the effectiveness of disease treatment. Hence, sensitive and accurate detection of proteins in human biospecimens is imperative. However, at present, there is no ideal method available for the detection of proteins in clinical samples, many of which are present at ultralow (less than 1 pM) concentrations and in complicated matrices. Herein, we report an ultrasensitive and selective DNA-assisted CRISPR-Cas12a enhanced fluorescent assay (DACEA) for protein detection with detection limits reaching as low as attomolar concentrations. The high assay sensitivity was accomplished through the combined DNA barcode amplification (by using dual-functionalized AuNPs) and CRISPR analysis, while the high selectivity and high resistance to the matrix effects of our method were accomplished via the formation of protein-antibody sandwich structure and the specific recognition of Cas12a (under the guidance of crRNA) toward the designed target ssDNA. Given its ability to accurately and sensitively detect trace amounts of proteins in complicated matrices, the DACEA protein assay platform pioneered in this work has a potential application in routine protein biomarker testing.
