Hydrodynamic manipulation of nano-objects by optically induced thermo-osmotic flows.
Article in Nature communications, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 34 papers.
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.
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
Manipulation of nano-objects at the microscale is of great technological importance for constructing new functional materials, manipulating tiny amounts of fluids, reconfiguring sensor systems, or detecting tiny concentrations of analytes in medical screening. Here, we show that hydrodynamic boundary flows enable the trapping and manipulation of nano-objects near surfaces. We trigger thermo-osmotic flows by modulating the van der Waals and double layer interactions at a gold-liquid interface with optically generated local temperature fields. The hydrodynamic flows, attractive van der Waals and repulsive double layer forces acting on the suspended nanoparticles enable precise nanoparticle positioning and guidance. A rapid multiplexing of flow fields permits the parallel manipulation of many nano-objects and the generation of complex flow fields. Our findings have direct implications for the field of plasmonic nanotweezers and other thermo-plasmonic trapping systems, paving the way for nanoscopic manipulation with boundary flows.
