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

backgroundIt is well documented that Silver Nanoparticles (SNPs) are potent antimicrobial agents. However, little is known about antimicrobial effects of biologically synthesized SNPs at molecular level. In the present study, efficacy of the green microalgae

methodsAlgal suspension was incubated in the presence of silver nitrate to induce formation of nanoparticles. The experiment was conducted under a pH range to evaluate pH effect on the shape and properties of nanoparticles. Characterization was performed by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive Spectrometry (EDS) and X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD). Moreover, concentration of biosynthesized SNPs was measured by high resolution ICP-OES spectrometer. Antibacterial effect of SNPs on growth of

resultsSpherical SNPs were produced with characteristic monodispersity at low and neutral pHs; however, in alkaline condition, nanorod structures were formed. SNPs inhibited growth of

conclusionIn general, results revealed formation of spherical silver nanoparticles with inhibitory effects on bacterial growth and antagonist activity on the expression of alpha hemolysin. Moreover, increase in pH to basic condition resulted in aggregation of nanoparticles and formation of rod-like nanostructures.
