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

The widespread use of nitroimidazole antibiotics such as ronidazole (RON) in human and veterinary medicine raises concerns about environmental persistence and antimicrobial resistance. Sensitive detection of trace RON in water is therefore essential. Here, we report for the first time, nickel telluride nanoparticles (NiTe NPs) as an electrochemical sensor specifically designed for RON detection. NiTe, a transition metal chalcogenide with high conductivity and electrocatalytic activity, was synthesized via a simple hydrothermal method and characterized by X-ray diffraction, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. When drop-cast on a glassy carbon electrode, the NiTe NPs significantly enhanced electron transfer and promoted efficient electrochemical reduction of RON. The sensor achieved a detection limit of 1.5 nM, a wide linear range of 0.01-270 μM, and a sensitivity of 0.489 μA μM
