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

Zearalenone (ZEN), a non-steroidal estrogenic mycotoxin, contaminates animal feed and grain crops, thereby entering the food chain and posing a significant threat to human health. Consequently, there is an urgent need for a sensitive and rapid method for detecting trace levels of ZEN. In this study, we developed a phage-displayed antigen-binding fragment (Fab-phage) and established a Fab-phage-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (Fab-pELISA) for ZEN detection. Under optimal conditions, this method exhibits a half-maximal inhibitory concentration of 0.36 ng/mL, with a linear range from 0.07 to 3.89 ng/mL and a detection limit of 0.03 ng/mL. The method demonstrates high selectivity towards ZEN and good recovery rates of 97.35-122.66% with relative standard deviations not exceeding 3.5%. Furthermore, the detection results obtained using Fab-pELISA on real cereal samples are consistent with those from high-performance liquid chromatography, meeting practical application requirements. Therefore, the Fab-phage serves as a valuable biochemical reagent, and the established Fab-pELISA represents a promising analytical strategy for detecting ZEN and other trace toxic contaminants in cereals.
