Electrochemical and Optical Carbon Dots and Glassy Carbon Biosensors: A Review on Their Development and Applications in Early Cancer Detection.
Review in Micromachines, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Cancer remains one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide, making early detection a critical factor in improving patient outcomes and survival rates. Developing advanced biosensors is essential for achieving early detection and accurate cancer diagnosis. This review offers a comprehensive overview of the development and application of carbon dots (CDs) and glassy carbon (GC) biosensors for early cancer detection. It covers the synthesis of CDs and GC, electrode fabrication methods, and electrochemical and optical transduction principles. This review explores various biosensors, including enzymatic and non-enzymatic, and discusses key biomarkers relevant to cancer detection. It also examines characterization techniques for electrochemical and optical biosensors, such as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, UV-VIS, and confocal microscopy. The findings highlight the advancements in biosensor performance, emphasizing improvements in sensitivity, selectivity, and stability, as well as underscoring the potential of integrating different transduction methods and characterization approaches to enhance early cancer detection.
