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

Imaging and sensing technologies are crucial in various fields, encompassing applications in cell and tissue analysis, DNA and RNA characterization, food and drug composition analysis, and forensic science. Instead of using complex and heavy conventional instruments to perform these analyses, lightweight, portable, and field-ready instruments have recently become commercially available. In this study, a miniature attenuated total internal reflectance fluorescence (mini-ATIRF) microscope has been demonstrated using a 3D printer. By utilizing evanescent field illumination and surface plasmon-coupled emission, the proposed mini-ATIRF microscope not only delivers fluorescence images four times brighter but also weighs 73% less than conventional fluorescence microscopy. Moreover, the manufacturing cost of the equipment is more than 95% cheaper.
