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

Lipid-bilayer devices have been studied for on-site sensors in the fields of diagnosis, food and environmental monitoring, and safety/security inspection. In this paper, we propose a lipid-bilayer-on-a-cup device for serial sample measurements using a pumpless solution exchange procedure. The device consists of a millimeter-scale cylindrical cup with vertical slits which is designed to steadily hold an aqueous solution and exchange the sample by simply fusing and splitting the solution with an external solution. The slit design was experimentally determined by the capabilities of both the retention and exchange of the solution. Using the optimized slit, a planar lipid bilayer was reconstituted with a nanopore protein at a microaperture allocated to the bottom of the cup, and the device was connected to a portable amplifier. The solution exchangeability was demonstrated by observing the dilution process of a blocker molecule of the nanopore dissolved in the cup. The pumpless solution exchange by the proposed cup-like device presents potential as a lipid-bilayer system for portable sensing applications.
