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

We report on the synthesis of long silver nanowires using the hydrothermal method, with H₂O₂ as the reducing agent. Our approach yields nanowires with an average diameter and length of about 100 nm and 160 µm, respectively, reaching the maximum length of 800 µm. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) measurements revealed the presence of a thick, inhomogeneous poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) layer covering the nanowires, which with time becomes much more uniform, leading to well-defined extinction peaks in the ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectra. This change in morphology is evidenced also by the fluorescence enhancement behavior probed using protein complexes. Wide-field and confocal fluorescence microscopy measurements demonstrate strong, 10-fold enhancement of the protein emission intensity, accompanied by a reduction of the fluorescence decay time. In addition, for the aged, one-month-old nanowires, the uniformity of the intensity profile along them was substantially improved as compared with the as-synthesized ones. The results point towards the importance of the morphology of plasmonically active silver nanowires when considering their application in enhancing optical properties or achieving energy propagation over submillimeter distances.
