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

ITIC's superior electron-accepting capacity and efficient oxygen reduction motivated the design of a sensor to enhance sensitivity, selectivity, and stability over conventional oxygen-dependent or fullerene-based systems. As oxygen acts as the terminal reagent in enzymatic glucose oxidation, we developed an ITIC-mediated glucose oxidase (GOx) biosensor on glassy carbon (GCE) and screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCE). ITIC, a non-fullerene organic semiconductor, was drop-cast onto the electrode to catalyze oxygen reduction, followed by GOx immobilization in a chitosan matrix. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) confirmed uniform, ultrathin coatings without significant morphological changes upon ITIC and GOx deposition. Electrochemical studies (cyclic (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV)) revealed a distinct ITIC reduction peak at -0.7 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) and a glucose-dependent current decrease, consistent with mediated electron transfer during enzymatic oxidation. Under optimized conditions, the GCE-based biosensor showed a sensitivity of 10.7 μA L mmol
