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

This work reports a 3D-printed metasurface as a biosensing device that combines the functions of sample enrichment and quantification. The device consists of a nanoplasmonic sensing element surrounded by a biomimetic hydrophobic structure. The hydrophobic structure serves as a sample concentrator that can enrich analyte, which is subsequently quantified by the nanoplasmonic biosensor. Both the nanoscale biosensor and microscale hydrophobic sample concentrator were fabricated using two-photon polymerization lithography (TPL). The hydrophobic microstructure was inspired by natural patterns found on surfaces like lotus leaves, which are known for their water-repellent properties. The TPL-based 3D printing approach enables the integration of two functions into one chip with a high-resolution and simple fabrication process. The device was employed to detect swine influenza A virus within a droplet initially containing 20 μL of liquid. During testing, the droplet's volume decreased due to evaporation driven by plasmonic heating. As a result, the droplet's diameter can shrink from 3.4 mm to 0.1 mm in 15 min. The volume reduction corresponds to a virus concentration increase of over 4 × 10
