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

Heparin and protamine are vital biomacromolecules extensively used in clinical settings, necessitating precise monitoring of their concentrations. In this study, a novel positively charged fluorescent probe was developed, derived from an aggregation-induced emission (AIE) luminogen, tetraphenylethylene (TPE), for the detection of heparin and protamine. The probe was designed by modifying TPE with a 4-methyl-1-(3-(trimethylammonio)propyl)pyridin-1-ium bromide moiety, which imparts enhanced water solubility and long-wavelength emission. The probe (TPE-PY-N) binds electrostatically to heparin, inducing a significant "turn-on" fluorescence response. It exhibits high selectivity and sensitivity, with a limit of detection (LOD) of 10.7 ng/mL for heparin in buffer solution. Subsequently, the addition of protamine displaces the probe molecules, leading to a "turn-off" emission. The probe's high selectivity and sensitivity position it as a promising tool for sensing heparin and protamine in buffer and highly diluted serum.
