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

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a critical role in early cancer detection, but traditional DNA probes are limited by the low abundance of miRNAs and their "always effective" property. Herein, we construct a photocaged amplified DNA nanodevice (PAD) by attaching DNA probes to upconversion nanoparticles (UCs). Upon remote near-infrared (NIR) light stimulation, the photocleavable DNA probes are activated by emitted UV light, and subsequently triggered by target miRNA. This process is further propelled by mRNA and DNA hairpin to achieve "one to many" signal amplification, enabling precise and sensitive spatiotemporal resolved imaging of miRNA.
