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 nanoparticle (AgNP) has been one of the most commonly used nanoparticles since the past decade for a wide range of applications, including environmental, agricultural, and medical fields, due to their unique physicochemical properties and ease of synthesis. Though chemical and physical methods of fabricating AgNPs have been quite popular, they posed various environmental problems. As a result, the bioinspired route of AgNP synthesis emerged as the preferred pathway for synthesis. This review focuses extensively on the biosynthesis of AgNP-mediated through different plant species worldwide in the past 10 years. The most popularly utilized application areas have been highlighted with their in-depth mechanistic approach in this review, along with the discussion on the different phytochemicals playing an important role in the bio-reduction of silver ions. In addition to this, the environmental factors which govern their synthesis and stability have been reviewed. The paper systematically analyses the trend of research on AgNP biosynthesis throughout the world through bibliometric analysis. Apart from this, the feasibility analysis of the plant-mediated synthesis of nanoparticles and their applications have been intrigued considering the perspectives of engineering, economic, and environmental limitations. Thus, the review is not only a comprehensive summary of the achievements and current status of plant-mediated biosynthesis but also provides insight into emerging future research frontier. Supplementary Information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s13204-021-02135-5.
