Faceted-rough surface with disassembling of macrosteps in nucleation-limited crystal growth.
Article in Scientific reports, 2021. 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
To clarify whether a surface can be rough with faceted macrosteps that maintain their shape on the surface, crystal surface roughness is studied by a Monte Carlo method for a nucleation-limited crystal-growth process. As a surface model, the restricted solid-on-solid (RSOS) model with point-contact-type step-step attraction (p-RSOS model) is adopted. At equilibrium and at sufficiently low temperatures, the vicinal surface of the p-RSOS model consists of faceted macrosteps with (111) side surfaces and smooth terraces with (001) surfaces (the step-faceting zone). We found that a surface with faceted macrosteps has an approximately self-affine-rough structure on a 'faceted-rough surface'; the surface width is strongly divergent at the step-disassembling point, which is a characteristic driving force for crystal growth. A 'faceted-rough surface' is realized in the region between the step-disassembling point and a crossover point where the single nucleation growth changes to poly-nucleation growth.
