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

Tb doped carbon dots (Tb-CDs) were synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method and the existence of Tb in the obtained CDs was confirmed by the several characterization methods. Tb-CDs were exploited to design a ratiometric fluorescence sensor for deferasirox (DFX) assay. CDs and Tb acted as reference and sensing probs in the sensor. In the presence of DFX, the fluorescence intensity of CDs remained unchanged, while Tb emission increased. The fluorescence ratio of Tb to CDs was proportional to the DFX concentration at the range of 0.1 to 2.5 µM. Additionally, the fluorescence color altered from blue (CDs emission) to green (Tb emission) with increasing DFX concentration. We employed this color variation to establish a smartphone based sensor for the DFX detection. The linear range of established sensor was 0.5-15 µM. The detection limit (3S) for the ratiometric and smartphone based sensor was calculated to be 0.08 and 0.4 µM, respectively. Both sensors were applied to measure DFX in human serum samples with satisfactory results.
