Silver Nanoparticles Alter Cell Adhesion and Proliferation of Sheep Primary Mesothelial Cells.
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
backgroundHuman exposure to engineered nanoparticles has been linked to pleural effusion, inflammation and fibrosis. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are widely used in medical and domestic products, increasing the risk of occupational and domestic exposure. We assessed the influence of AgNPs on adhesion and proliferation of sheep primary pleural mesothelial cells. MATERIALS AND
methodsCells were used for cell adhesion (90 min) and proliferation experiments (3 days) while exposed to 20 nm and 60 nm AgNPs (0.2 μg/ml and 2 μg/ml) using colorimetric assays.
resultsExposure to 0.2 μg/ml of 20 nm and 60 nm AgNPs significantly increased cell adhesion, while at 2 μg/ml this effect was not elicited. Cell proliferation was significantly increased by both 20 nm and 60 nm AgNPs at 0.2 μg/ml, while at 2 μg/ml this effect was only elicited by the 60 nm AgNPs.
conclusionAgNPs alter the adhesive and proliferative properties of primary pleural mesothelial cells.
