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

Gold/silver bimetallic nanoparticles still attract extensive interest due to their favorable properties e.g. in plasmonics or catalysis. We present here a facile and robust way for the production of clean Au/Ag binary nanoparticles (BNPs) with a total control over the composition via the spark discharge nanoparticle generation technique. With the application of pure Ag and Au electrodes, a tuning range of 55 to 90% Au content was achieved, but this can be further extended to the full 0 to 100% range by using a couple of alloyed electrodes. An added benefit of the approach is that either the concentration or the mean particle size can be kept constant at every composition by adjusting the generator parameters. Based on the systematic experimental data collected, a semi-empirical model for the prediction of the Au/Ag BNP composition was also developed. This model was used to calculate the theoretically achievable Au/Ag composition at a given spark parameter set in the parameter range most commonly used in the literature.
