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

Two-dimensional tellurium nanosheets were prepared by a hydrothermal method and characterized by scanning electron microscopy, powder X-ray diffractometry, and UV-vis spectroscopy. The nanosheets were explored as a novel matrix for desorption/ionization of small molecules including nucleobases, fatty acids and amino acids by matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The results show that the tellurium nanosheets have good UV light absorption, cause low matrix ion interference in the low-molecule-mass region, and have high desorption/ionization efficiency in the negative ion mode. Hence, they are a viable matrix for negative ion desorption/ionization in MALDI-TOF MS of small molecules. In order to investigate the desorption/ionization mechanisms, benzylpyridinium salt and bisphenol A were adopted as probes. The results show that both of the electronic transitions mechanism and laser-induced thermal mechanism play important roles in desorption/ionization process. Graphical abstract Two-dimensional tellurium (Te) nanosheet was synthesized by a hydrothermal method and explored as a novel matrix for desorption/ionization of small molecules by matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS).
