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

We report for the first time kinetic studies on chromium(III) detection in aqueous solution using citrate-capped silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and the surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) technique. Moreover, we have shown an important effect of adding ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) on the enhancement and the stability of the Raman signal. The origin of the SERS signal was attributed to the coordination of Cr(III) by citrate/EDTA molecules and the formation of hot spots on aggregated AgNPs. Depending on the mixing method of Cr(III) and EDTA with AgNPs, the temporal SERS spectral features reveal a Prout-Tompkins or a Langmuir kinetic detection model. The UV-visible data, the temporal response of the Raman signal, and the scanning electron microscopy analysis have allowed us to elucidate the mechanism of Cr(III) detection. We observed that mixing simultaneously Cr(III), AgNPs, and EDTA leads to the most stable and intense time-dependent SERS signal. The obtained results should open the way to perform kinetic studies on different host-guest interactions in solution using the SERS technique.
