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

Innovative double-emission carbon dots (DE-CDs) were synthesized via a one-step hydrothermal method using fennel and m-phenylenediamine (m-PD) as precursors. These DE-CDs exhibited dual emission wavelengths at 432 and 515 nm under different excitations, making them highly versatile for fluorescence-based applications. The fluorescence of the DE-CDs was efficiently quenched by tetracycline (TC) through the inner filter effect (IFE), allowing for the construction of a sensitive dual-response fluorescent sensor. This sensor demonstrated a strong exponential correlation with TC concentrations in the range 0.99-118 μM, achieving a low detection limit of 53.4 nM, which is appropriate for environmental monitoring. To further enhance its practicality, a smartphone-integrated fluorescent hydrogel film sensing platform was developed. This portable and user-friendly system enabled rapid, on-site TC detection in water samples, combining high sensitivity with convenience for real-world applications. The integration of the DE-CD-based sensor into a hydrogel platform addressed the challenge of translating laboratory precision into field-ready tools. This study revealed the potential of DE-CDs as a robust and efficient solution for bridging the gap between laboratory-based analysis and portable, on-site environmental monitoring.
