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

An eco-friendly nitrogen-passivated carbon dot (N-CDs)-based fluorescent sensor was designed for the selective and sensitive detection of thiophanate-methyl, a widely applied fungicide in agriculture. The synthesized N-CDs exhibited robust fluorescence and remarkable photostability, which contributed to the sensor's performance. Notably, the sensor achieved a detection limit as low as 4.8 nM and operated effectively over a wide linear dynamic range of 10 to 150 µM, showcasing its potential for precise thiophanate-methyl detection. Optimization of the experimental parameters, including pH and concentration of N-CDs, resulted in a very efficient sensing platform with rapid response time and good selectivity towards common interferents such as other pesticides and metal ions. Moreover, the sensor was successfully deployed for real agricultural samples enabling a high recovery for accurate detection of thiophanate-methyl residues. The N-CDs-based sensors may serve as sustainable cost-effective methods for monitoring pesticide contamination in foodstuffs or environmental matrices. The sensor stands out as be practical benefit, eco-friendly tool for food safety assurance and environmental protection.
