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

Analysis of individual proteins using nanopores makes it possible to determine their size and shape in a label-free approach, within minutes, and from μL sample volumes. Short residence times of proteins in the nanopore, high electrical current noise, and bandwidth limitations of the recording electronics during resistive pulse recordings, however, limit the accuracy of size and shape analysis of individual proteins. The work presented here introduces a polymer surface coating of solid-state nanopores to minimize nonspecific interactions of proteins with the nanopore wall while functionalizing it covalently with phenylboronic acid (PBA) groups. These PBA groups make it possible to trap selectively glycated proteins by taking advantage of the formation of reversible covalent bonds between PBA and vicinal diol groups of glycated amino acid residues on proteins. Dwell time analysis revealed two populations of resistive pulses: short pulses with dwell times
