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

An ion concentration polarization (ICP)-based electrokinetic concentration device is used for accelerating the surface hybridization reaction between exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) and morpholinos (MOs) as a synthetic oligo capture probe in the nanomolar concentration range in a microfluidic channel. Compared with standard hybridization at the same concentration, the hybridization time of the miRNA target on MO capture probes could be reduced from ∼24 h to 30 min, with an increase in detection speed by 48 times. This ICP-enhanced hybridization method not only significantly decreases the detection time but also makes workflow simple to use, circumventing use of quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction or other conventional enzyme-based amplification methods that can cause artifacts.
