Smartphone Biosensors for Non-Invasive Drug Monitoring in Saliva.
Article in Biosensors, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
In recent years, biosensors have emerged as a promising solution for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM), offering automated systems for rapid chemical analyses with minimal pre-treatment requirements. The use of saliva as a biological sample matrix offers distinct advantages, including non-invasiveness, cost-effectiveness, and reduced susceptibility to fluid intake fluctuations compared to alternative methods. The aim of this study was to explore and compare two types of low-cost biosensors, namely, the colourimetric and electrochemical methodologies, for quantifying paracetamol (acetaminophen) concentrations within artificial saliva using the MediMeter app, which has been specifically developed for this application. The research encompassed extensive optimisations and methodological refinements to ensure the results were robust and reliable. Material selection and parameter adjustments minimised external interferences, enhancing measurement accuracy. Both the colourimetric and electrochemical methods successfully determined paracetamol concentrations within the therapeutic range of 0.01-0.05 mg/mL (R
