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

In this manuscript, we report the application of graphene oxide (GO) in the preparation of cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) grids. We treated GO with water and organic solvents, such as, methanol, ethanol and isopropanol separately to isolate significantly large GO monolayer flake to fabricate the grids for cryo-EM and TEM study. We implemented a simplified approach to isolate flakes of GO monolayer for constructing the TEM grids, independent of expensive heavy equipment (Langmuir-Blodgett trough, glow-discharge system, carbon-evaporator or plasma-cleaner or peristaltic pumps). We employed confocal microscopy, SEM and TEM to characterize the flake size, stability and transparency of the GO monolayer and atomic force microscopy (AFM) to probe the depth of GO coated grids. Additionally, GO grids are visualized at cryogenic condition for suitability of GO monolayer for cryo-EM study. In addition, GO-Met-H
