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

In our previous study, we developed an array of unique porous structures (an array of barnacle-like porous structures) to apply to biosensing chips. The porous structure was formed by an internal swelling phenomenon of a polystyrene colloidal particle monolayer, which was surrounded by a poly(vinyl alcohol) layer, for the duration of the monolayer's immersion in a toluene bath. Barnacle-like porous structures were formed when polystyrene particles that had rapidly swelled broke the outer layer around the top of the particles. However, after the surface was coated with a thin Ag layer, the porous structure showed a relatively broad extinction spectrum that was undesirable for sensing chips based on both surface plasmon extinction and grating coupling. In this paper, we propose an approach to obtain relatively sharp extinction spectra based on the decimation of the spatial frequencies of the porous structures. This study also investigates formation properties in more detail to control the structural features of the resultant porous structures. A relatively sharp peak in the extinction spectrum was ultimately obtained.
