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) are the most widely used engineered nanomaterials in consumer products, primarily due to their antimicrobial properties. This widespread usage has resulted in concerns regarding potential adverse environmental impacts and increased probability of human exposure. As the number of AgNP consumer products grows, the likelihood of interactions with other household materials increases. AgNP products have the potential to interact with household cleaning products in laundry, dishwashers, or during general use of all-purpose surface cleaners. This study has investigated the interaction between surfactant-based surface cleaning products and AgNPs of different sizes and with different capping agents. One AgNP consumer product, two laboratory-synthesized AgNPs, and ionic silver were selected for interaction with one cationic, one anionic, and one nonionic surfactant product to simulate AgNP transformations during consumer product usage before disposal and subsequent environmental release. Changes in size, morphology, and chemical composition were detected during a 60 min exposure to surfactant-based surface cleaning products using ultraviolet-visible (UV/Vis) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (TEM-EDX), and dynamic light scattering (DLS). Generally, once AgNP suspensions were exposed to surfactant-based surface cleaning products, all the particles showed an initial aggregation, likely due to disruption of their capping agents. Over the 60 min exposure, cleaning agent-1 (cationic) showed more significant particle aggregates than cleaning agent-2 (anionic) and cleaning agent-3 (nonionic). In addition, UV/Vis, TEM-EDX, and DLS confirmed formation of incidental AgNPs from interaction of ionic silver with all surfactant types.
