Novel synthesis of ZnO by Ice-cube method for photo-inactivation of
Article in Saudi journal of biological sciences, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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 ZnO particle with varieties of morphology was prepared from ice-cube of zinc ammonium complex at boiling water surface in 1 min induction of thermal shock. The zinc ammonium complex in ice cube was developed using zinc acetate and biologically activated ammonia in 1 hr and kept in the freezer. Temperature gradient behaviour of the water medium during thermal shock was captured by the thermal camera and thermometer. Morphology study revealed a variety of flower-like ZnO particles with variable size from 1.0 to 2.5 μm. Further, ZnO particle morphologies were tuned by adding trisodium citrate and hexamine to obtain uniform spherical (2-3 μm) and flower (3-4 μm) shapes, respectively. XRD patterns revealed that all ZnO samples are of a hexagonal structure. Photocatalytic inactivation of
