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

To be useful in optoelectronic devices and sensors, a platform comprising stable fluorescence materials is essential. Here we constructed quantum dots (QDs) embedded DNA thin films which aims for stable fluorescence through the stabilization of QDs in the high aspect ratio salmon DNA (SDNA) matrix. Also for maximum luminescence, different concentration and configurations of core- and core/alloy/shell-type QDs were embedded within SDNA. The QD-SDNA thin films were constructed by drop-casting and investigated their optoelectronic properties. The infrared, UV-visible and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopies confirm the embedment of QDs in the SDNA matrix. Absolute PL quantum yield of the QD-SDNA thin film shows the ~70% boost due to SDNA matrix compared to QDs alone in aqueous phase. The linear increase of PL photon counts from few to order of 5 while increasing [QD] reveals the non-aggregation of QDs within SDNA matrix. These systematic studies on the QD structure, absorbance, and concentration- and thickness-dependent optoelectronic characteristics demonstrate the novel properties of the QD-SDNA thin film. Consequently, the SDNA thin films were suggested to utilize for the generalised optical environments, which has the potential as a matrix for light conversion and harvesting nano-bio material as well as for super resolution bioimaging- and biophotonics-based sensors.
