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

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) is of great importance to scientific community due to their plethora of applications. Several plant extracts have been reported for synthesis of AgNPs. In this study, lemon grass was used as a reducing and capping agent to prepare AgNPs. The formation of AgNPs was confirmed by using UV-Vis spectra as AgNPs show a characteristic peak around 400 nm. Effect of pH, temperature and lemon grass extract to silver nitrate ratio was optimized using response surface methodology (RSM). Characterization of AgNPs was done using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Energy Dispersive X-Ray spectroscopy (EDX), Trasmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS). Gas Chromatography-Mass spectrometry (GC-MS), Energy Dispersive X-Ray spectroscopy and Fourier Transform-Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopic analysis showed involvement of metabolites of lemon grass in the formation of AgNPs. Photo-catalytic activity of synthesized AgNPs was evaluated through degradation of organic pollutant methylene blue dye.
