New Generation of Antibacterial Products Based on Colloidal Silver.
Article in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The main objective of the present paper is the green synthesis of colloidal silver by ultrasonication starting from silver nitrate and using soluble starch as the reducing agent. Soluble starch has been used during synthesis because it is a cheap and environmentally friendly reactive. Silver colloid has been characterized by physicochemical methods: UV-VIS spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy and Energy Dispersive X-Ray spectroscopy. This colloidal material was prepared in order to prove and establish its toxicity on heterotrophic bacteria. Toxicity tests were carried out using test cultures with and without silver colloid with different concentrations. This way was possible to establish the minimum silver concentration that presents a toxic effect against used bacteria. Quantitative evaluation of bacterial growth was performed by using the Most Probable Number method. By counting the bacterial colony number, the antibacterial effect was determined for colloidal silver deposited onto the cotton gauze by adsorption. During the present study, we optimized the adsorption specific parameters: solid:liquid ratio, temperature, contact time, colloidal silver concentration. By thermodynamic, equilibrium and kinetic studies, the adsorptive process mechanism was established.
