Overcoming Diffusion-Limited Trapping in Nanoaperture Tweezers Using Opto-Thermal-Induced Flow.
Article in Nano letters, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 24 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
Nanoaperture-based plasmonic tweezers have shown tremendous potential in trapping, sensing, and spectroscopic analysis of nano-objects with single-molecule sensitivity. However, the trapping process is often diffusion-limited and therefore suffers from low-throughput. Here, we present bubble- and convection-assisted trapping techniques, which use opto-thermally generated Marangoni and Rayleigh-Bénard convection flow to rapidly deliver particles from large distances to the nanoaperture instead of relying on normal diffusion, enabling a reduction of 1-2 orders of magnitude in particle-trapping time (i.e., time before a particle is trapped).
