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

Biosensors are typically fabricated in the form of solid-state devices (chips, tapes, or films). Here, we demonstrate a proof-of-concept for an alternative form of biosensor─an amorphous biosensing pregel, which is formed on the interrogated surface of interest after application of a precursor mixture. The reagent cocktail is prepared from dilute agarose and a mixture of assay chemicals, including enzymes and substrates. The readout is either colorimetric or luminometric, and it is facilitated by a digital camera. The main conditions of the biosensing pregel preparation and application have been optimized. The method is particularly suitable for rudimentary macroscopic visualization of metabolites in plant tissues. In one exemplary application, plant leaves are split into two sides using adhesive tape. Following the application of the biosensing cocktail, distributions of target species such as glucose and adenosine triphosphate can be visualized in the peeled tissues. Thus, the approach enables rapid in situ sensing of analytes in the studied flat specimens without fabrication and use of classical solid-state biosensors.
