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

The highly efficient peroxidase-like activity of platinum nanozymes (3-20 nm size) is exploited within the complex cellular environment to catalyze the oxidation of the DAB substrate, producing an electron-dense signal around the nanozyme surface, upon osmium staining. It is proved that such nanozyme amplification can achieve a catalytic signal enhancement up to 10-fold, enabling the quick detection of the Pt particles (even of 3 nm size) by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) also at low magnification and across wide fields of view in the intricate intracellular milieu. The developed procedure is ideally suited to overcome standard amplification strategies currently used in TEM analysis, such as gold or silver enhancements. Furthermore, the wide versatility of the Pt-nanozyme probes in TEM imaging is demonstrated in immuno-EM and protein trafficking studies, showing their potential to track the subcellular localization of target biomolecules at both low and high magnifications. These results suggest that the use of nanozymes might represent a paradigm shift in the conventional amplification systems currently employed in electron microscopy for cellular analyses, offering enhanced imaging capabilities.
