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

In this study, isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) was employed exclusively as a structural protein template for the synthesis of gold nanoparticles, rather than relying on its enzymatic catalytic function. The reduction of Au³⁺ to Au⁰ is accomplished through the intrinsic reducing capability of amino acid residues (particularly tryptophan and tyrosine) within the protein scaffold, which simultaneously acts as a capping and stabilizing agent. This protein-templating strategy provides a straightforward, biocompatible, and cofactor-free approach for developing AuNP-based biosensing platforms. So, the IDH-based AuNPs offers promising applications across medical diagnostics, environmental monitoring, food safety, and research. In this study, we produced the recombinant isocitrate dehydrogenase of Yarrowia lipolytica yeast in E. coli BL21. After optimizing the enzyme activity/stability in the proper pH and temperature, its activity was then measured with K
