Opto-Thermophoretic Manipulation and Construction of Colloidal Superstructures in Photocurable Hydrogels.
Article in ACS applied nano materials, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 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
Light-based manipulation of colloidal particles holds great promise in fabrication of functional devices. Construction of complex colloidal superstructures using traditional optical tweezers is limited by high operation power and strong heating effect. Herein, we demonstrate low-power opto-thermophoretic manipulation and construction of colloidal superstructures in photocurable hydrogels. By introducing cationic surfactants into a hydrogel solution under a light-directed temperature field, we create both thermoelectric fields and depletion attraction forces to control the suspended colloidal particles. The particles of various sizes and compositions are thus trapped and organized into various superstructures. Furthermore, the colloidal superstructures are immobilized and patterned onto solid-state substrates through UV-induced photopolymerization of the hydrogel. Our opto-thermophoretic technique will open up avenues for bottom-up assembly of colloidal materials and devices.
