A Plasmonic Nanoledge Array Sensor for Selective Detection of Cardiovascular Disease Biomarkers in Human Whole Blood.

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.
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
Optical sensors face challenges when detecting ultralow amounts of analytes in whole blood, including signal quenching due to optical absorption and false positives due to nonspecific binding. This study introduces gold nanoscale array features termed nanoledges (NLs), which interact with incident white light to produce a transmitted surface plasmon resonance (tSPR) signal. This extraordinary optical transmission (EOT) spectrum occurs in the near-infrared (NIR) region, thereby minimizing signal quenching caused by visible-light absorption from blood proteins and pigments. To develop a sensitive, selective, and label-free optical biosensor for detecting various levels of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) in very small volumes of whole blood samples, DNA aptamers are tethered to the NL surface, specifically binding to the cTnI biomarker. This biological binding activity alters the refractive index at the NL surface, causing a peak shift in the EOT spectrum and enabling quantification of cTnI levels. The NL array chip demonstrated high sensitivity for cTnI detection in buffer, human serum (HS), and human whole blood (HB), with detection limits of 0.079, 0.084, and 0.097 ng/mL, respectively. Control measurements using blank target mediums and those containing up to 125 ng/mL of other proteins, such as myoglobin, creatine kinase, and heparin, showed minimal interference and high specificity. The NL plasmonic array's performance in biosensing underscores its promise for clinical analysis and its potential development as a point-of-care platform for early cardiovascular disease (CVD) diagnostics.
