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 report, we show interesting correlation between solvent polarity of alcohol solutions and fluorescence lifetime (τ(av)), estimated from time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy (TRFS), and macroscopic viscosity (η). Non-functionalized carbon nanoparticles (NCNP) were successfully used as flurophores in these measurements. The solvent polarity, described through polarizability (Δf) of dielectric continuum theory, could universally describe both τ(av)/τ(max) and η/η(max) through the relation, [Formula: see text] with X = τ(av)/τ(max) or η/η(max), (subscript OH represents corresponding values for alcohols) for alcohol solutions of methanol, ethanol and 1-propanol at room temperature. We show that fluorescence lifetime and solvent viscosity are universal functions of solvent polarity for alcohol solutions.
