A wearable device for continuous immunoassay-based monitoring of C-peptide in interstitial fluid.
Article in Science advances, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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.
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
C-peptide is a critical biomarker for evaluating pancreatic β cell function and managing diabetes. However, conventional methods such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay are limited by lengthy processing times and the necessity for invasive sample collection. This study introduces a regenerable, portable, and wearable device for minimally invasive, real-time monitoring of C-peptide in dermal interstitial fluid (ISF). The device uses a microneedle array and negative pressure extraction for ISF collection. A double-antibody sandwich approach was used to detect C-peptide, and an antibody regeneration strategy was applied to remove bound antigen-antibody complexes, thereby achieving repeatable detection, enabling at least 10 detection assays on the same chip with negligible signal attenuation. The compact design features a skin contact area of only 3 cm by 5.4 cm and excellent biocompatibility. Integrated with a mobile app, the device provides real-time concentration reading. Mouse and rabbit tests confirm effective ISF sampling and monitoring accuracy, demonstrating its potential for at-home diabetes management and broader wearable biosensing applications.
