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

Controlling the location and the distribution of hot spots is a crucial aspect in the fabrication of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) substrates for bio-analytical applications. The choice of a suitable method to tailor the dimensions and the position of plasmonic nanostructures becomes fundamental to provide SERS substrates with significant signal enhancement, homogeneity and reproducibility. In the present work, we studied the influence of the long-range ordering of different flexible gold-coated Si nanowires arrays on the SERS activity. The substrates are made by nanosphere lithography and metal-assisted chemical etching. The degree of order is quantitatively evaluated through the correlation length (ξ) as a function of the nanosphere spin-coating speed. Our findings showed a linear increase of the SERS signal for increasing values of ξ, coherently with a more ordered and dense distribution of hot spots on the surface. The substrate with the largest ξ of 1100 nm showed an enhancement factor of 2.6 · 10
