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

Spatially resolved sensing is a burgeoning area of electrochemistry that, in contrast to traditional electrochemical techniques, allows for the analysis of heterogeneous systems such as neurotransmitter release from cells. Of these techniques, optical microscopy methods are valued for real-time high throughput sensing. However, improving the sensitivity of many optical techniques remains a challenge. Here, we modify the gold (Au) electrode of the standard plasmonic electrochemical microscopy (PEM) setup with a mesoporous silica film (MSF) to achieve sensitive imaging of the electroactive species. Sensitivity enhancement occurs via species nanoconfinement from the attraction of ions to the negatively charged silica films, thereby increasing the local concentration change and magnifying the PEM signal. The performance of Au-MSF electrodes in the PEM setup was investigated using 1,1'-ferrocenedimethanol, whose oxidized form carries a positive charge. Results revealed enhancement of the sensing signal, with up to 37-fold improvement in the detection limit and up to 23 times improvement in the sensitivity. Importantly, Au-MSF electrodes allowed for the quantification of detected concentrations, in contrast to Au electrodes, for which R
