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 ultrasensitive detection of microRNA-17 (miRNA-107) is required for clinical diagnosis. In this work, an aggregation-induced electrochemiluminescence (AIECL) sensor was developed for the quantification of miRNA-107, in which AIECL-active polymer dots (Pdots) were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, and cyclic voltammetry and used as ECL emitters. Black hole quencher-labeled hairpin DNA (HP-BHQ) was modified on the Pdot surfaces, resulting in the ECL signal of the Pdots being in the "off" state due to the resonant energy transfer (RET) between the BHQ and Pdots. In the presence of miRNA-107, HP-BHQ opened through RNA-DNA hybridization. Subsequently, the introduced duplex-specific nuclease (DSN) facilitated the cleavage of DNA in the RNA-DNA hybrid chain and led to the detachment of HP-BHQ from the electrode surface. The ECL signal of the Pdots recovered, i.e., to the "on" state. The variation in the ECL signal was related to the concentration of the target miRNA-107. As a result, the AIECL biosensor exhibited a wide linear response to miRNA-107 concentrations ranging from 1.0 fM to 10.0 pM, and a low detection limit of 0.82 fM. This work provides a novel platform for the sensitive analysis of miRNA.
