Nanosphere lithography: the effect of chemical etching and annealing sequence on the shape and spectrum of nano-metal arrays.
Article in Heliyon, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
In this paper, it is shown that the sequence of chemical etching of the template and annealing has a significant effect on the shape and spectrum of the nano-metal arrays fabricated by nanosphere lithography (NSL). Higher nanoparticles with sharp edges are fabricated as a consequence of annealing the metal coated template, which is a 2d colloidal crystal, before chemical etching. Consequently, the absorption spectra of the fabricated sample become much sharper, in comparison with the one that is fabricated with the reversed order and also a shift is observed in the peak wavelength. The achieved result has practical importance for the applications of these nano-metal arrays in localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) based sensors.
