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

The demand for high-sensitivity, label-free sensing has driven the development of metasurface-based optical biosensors. While traditional architectures suffer from broad resonances and limited sensitivity due to radiative and dissipative losses, bound states in the continuum (BICs) offer a pathway to achieve extreme field enhancement and narrow resonance linewidths. By harnessing quasi-BIC modes, metasurfaces can significantly improve the limit of detection and facilitate device miniaturization. This Review synthesizes current advancements in BIC-enabled biomolecular sensing, covering fundamental physics, symmetry-breaking strategies, and sensing modalities. Furthermore, we categorize recent developments based on material platforms-ranging from dielectrics to hybrids-and highlight their specific applications in life sciences. The Review concludes with an outlook on bridging the gap between laboratory research and commercial point-of-care diagnostics.
