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

Nowadays, due to a wide range of applications of nanoparticles (NPs) in many industrial areas, accumulations of those entities in environment pose a great risk. Owing to their inertness, noble metal NPs may remain in contaminated soils nearly unchanged for long time. Within this context, size-, shape-, and concentration-dependent uptake of particles by plants belongs to unexplored area. In this work, we present water solutions of biologically friendly synthesized spherical AuNPs with pretty narrow size distribution in size range from 10 to 18 nm. Their thorough characterization by atomic absorption spectroscopy, mass spectroscopy-equipped inductively coupled plasma, dynamic light scattering (DLS), and TEM methods was followed by the study of their effect on the growth of Arabidopsis thaliana (primary and lateral roots), in particle size- and concentration-dependent manner. Due to strictly round-shape form of AuNPs and absence of particle agglomeration, DLS-derived size and size distribution were in good concordance with those obtained from TEM. The length and number of A. thaliana lateral roots were significantly affected by all types of AuNPs. Smallest AuNPs at highest concentration inhibited length of primary roots and, in contrast, enhanced hair root growth.
