Gold nanorod-assisted near-infrared stimulation of bullfrog sciatic nerve.
Article in Lasers in medical science, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Infrared neural stimulation (INS) is a new and developing approach for neural repair, with the advantages of being non-contact, spatially precise, and artifact-free. However, the disadvantage of infrared light is that it is difficult to stimulate deep tissue because of its weak penetrating power. Therefore, this paper introduces an improved method using near-infrared laser to stimulate bullfrog sciatic nerves because of its strong penetrating power. Meanwhile, gold nanorods (Au NRs) are injected into the nerve to increase the absorption of light. The mechanism is the instantaneous temperature rise caused by the absorption of infrared light by Au NRs. The compound muscle action potential (CMAP) associated with the irradiated sciatic nerve is recorded by a multi-channel physiological signal instrument. The peak to peak amplitude (V
