Research Advances in Conjugated Polymer-Based Optical Sensor Arrays for Early Diagnosis of Clinical Diseases.
Review in Polymers, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Early and accurate diagnosis is critical for disease surveillance, therapeutic guidance, and relapse monitoring. Sensor arrays have emerged as a multi-analyte detection tool via non-specific interactions to generate unique fingerprint patterns with high levels of selectivity and discrimination. Conjugated polymers (CPs), with their tunable π-conjugated backbones, exceptional light-harvesting capability, and efficient "molecular wire effect," provide an ideal and versatile material platform for such arrays, enabling significant optical signal amplification and high sensitivity. This review systematically outlines the rational design and functionalization strategies of CPs for constructing high-performance sensor arrays. It delves into the structure-property relationships that govern their sensing performance, covering main-chain engineering, side-chain functionalization, and microenvironmental regulation. Representative applications are discussed, including non-small cell lung cancer, breast cancer, bacterial and viral infections, Alzheimer's disease, and diabetic nephropathy, highlighting the remarkable diagnostic capabilities achieved through tailored CP materials. Finally, future perspectives are focused on novel material designs and device integration to advance this vibrant field.
