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

Carbon dots (CDs)-based ratiometric fluorescence strategies have attracted considerable attention. In this study, we developed a facile ratiometric fluorescent biosensor for DNA detection by utilizing the blue-emitting carbon dots (BCDs) as the fluorophore and acriflavine (AF), a fluorescent biological stain reagent, as both the response and recognition molecules. When AF was added, the fluorescence of BCDs decreased effectively and accompanied by a hypsochromic shift from 448 to 425 nm, whereas the fluorescence of AF at about 500 nm appeared due to the synergistic effect of Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) and the inner filter effect (IFE) between the BCDs and AF. In the presence of DNA, the intercalative binding of AF into the DNA helix resulted in the fluorescence quenching of AF and the fluorescence restoration of BCDs at the same time. Therefore, the quantitative detection of DNA can be carried out vis evaluating the fluorescence intensity ratio of F
