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

Acid phosphatase (ACP) serves as a vital clinical biomarker for the diagnosis of various pathological conditions. Herein, a sensitive fluorescent platform was developed for ACP detection, leveraging biocompatible Zr4+ ions as a molecular trigger for aggregation-induced emission (AIE) of 4,6-diamino-2-mercaptopyrimidine-capped copper nanoclusters (DAMP-CuNCs). The coordination between Zr4+ and N atoms of the DAMP ligands facilitated the self-assembly of CuNCs into micro-scale aggregates, thereby significantly amplifying the fluorescence intensity. In the presence of ACP, the enzymatic hydrolysis of the substrate L-ascorbic acid-2-phosphate (AAP) produced inorganic phosphate groups (PO43−). Owing to the superior affinity of Zr4+ toward phosphate, the pre-formed aggregates were effectively dissociated through a competitive coordination mechanism, leading to a significant “Turn-Off” fluorescence state. Under optimized conditions, the assay exhibited a wide linear range from 0.1 to 20 U/L for ACP analysis, with a low detection limit (LOD) of 0.04 U/L. Furthermore, the assay was successfully applied to the determination of ACP in human serum samples, demonstrating its great potential for clinical diagnostics and biological research.
