From nucleation and coarsening to coalescence in metastable liquids.
Article in Philosophical transactions. Series A, Mathematical, physical, and engineering sciences, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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 transition of a metastable liquid (supersaturated solution or supercooled melt) occurring from the intermediate stage (where the crystals nucleate and grow) to the concluding stage (where the larger particles evolve at the expense of the dissolution of smaller particles) is theoretically described, with allowance for various mass transfer mechanisms (reaction on the interface surface, volume diffusion, grain-boundary diffusion, diffusion along the dislocations) arising at the stage of Ostwald ripening (coalescence). The initial distribution function (its 'tail') for the concluding stage (forming as a result of the evolution of a particulate assemblage during the intermediate stage) is taken into account to determine the particle-size distribution function at the stage of Ostwald ripening. This modified distribution function essentially differs from the universal Lifshitz-Slyozov (LS) solutions for several mass transfer mechanisms. Namely, its maximum lies below and is shifted to the left in comparison with the LS asymptotic distribution function. In addition, the right branch of the particle-size distribution lies above and is shifted to the right of the LS blocking point. It is shown that the initial 'tail' of the particle-size distribution function completely determines its behaviour at the concluding stage of Ostwald ripening. The present theory agrees well with experimental data. This article is part of the theme issue 'Patterns in soft and biological matters'.
