Enhancement of Antibacterial Performance of Silver Nanowire Transparent Film by Post-Heat Treatment.

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
Silver nanomaterials (AgNMs) have been applied as antibacterial agents to combat bacterial infections that can cause disease and death. The antibacterial activity of AgNMs can be improved by increasing the specific surface area, so significant efforts have been devoted to developing various bottom-up synthesis methods to control the size and shape of the particles. Herein, we report on a facile heat-treatment method that can improve the antibacterial activity of transparent silver nanowire (AgNW) films in a size-controllable, top-down manner. AgNW films were fabricated via spin-coating and were then heated at different temperatures (230 and 280 °C) for 30 min. The morphology and the degree of oxidation of the as-fabricated AgNW film were remarkably sensitive to the heat-treatment temperature, while the transparency was insensitive. As the heat-treatment temperature increased, the AgNWs spontaneously broke into more discrete wires and droplets, and oxidation proceeded faster. The increase in the heat-treatment temperature further increased the antibacterial activity of the AgNW film, and the heat treatment at 280 °C improved the antibacterial activity from 31.7% to 94.7% for
