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

Nanozymes, exemplified by metal nanoparticles, have shown promise in the fields of biological diagnostics and therapeutics. However, their practical application is often hindered by aggregation or deactivation in complex biological systems. Here, we develop a DNA-engineered nanozyme coating to preserve the peroxidase-like catalytic activity of platinum nanoparticles in complex biological environments. We employed thiol-modified single-stranded DNA to coat the platinum nanoparticles through metal-sulfur interaction. We found that the negatively charged DNA coating prevents the aggregation of platinum nanoparticles in high-salt environments. Moreover, the DNA coating functions as a molecular sieve, inhibiting non-specific protein adsorption while preserving substrate access to the catalytic interface, thus sustaining high peroxidase-like catalytic activity in serum. As a proof of concept, we demonstrate miRNA detection in serum samples with a detection limit of 1 fM. This approach offers a versatile strategy for molecular diagnostics of nanozymes in complex biological environments.
