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
Engineered nanomaterials are becoming increasingly ubiquitous in our society, with numerous applications in medicine, consumer products, bioremediation, and advanced materials. As these nanomaterials increase in variety, analyzing their characteristics is of great importance. Single particle inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (SP-ICP-MS) is a high-throughput, sensitive, and robust instrumental analysis method used to simultaneously characterize and quantify nanoparticles in a variety of matrices. One such type of nanoparticle of interest is amorphous silica nanoparticles (SiNPs). SiNPs have widespread use in consumer products such as food and cosmetics and are prime candidates for novel medical applications and uses in environmental bioremediation. Despite their increased use, SiNPs have been shown to have toxicological properties in vitro and in vivo, particularly with regard to the immune system. Because of the potential for increased SiNP exposure in the general public and in occupational settings, examining the relationship that SiNPs have with immune cells such as macrophages to elucidate mechanisms of toxicity is vital. To effectively determine the toxicity of nanoparticles, it is critical to examine dosimetry and the amount of nanoparticles taken up by the cell of interest. Different cell types have different uptake profiles, and varying physicochemical properties govern nanoparticle dosimetry and uptake in cells. Here, we describe a protocol using SP-ICP-MS to quantify and characterize the size, size distribution, and amount of SiNPs present in a cell and medium sample. We use a single-step digestion, which allows for the digestion of biological matrices while simultaneously keeping the SiNPs intact for SP-ICP-MS analysis. Clinically, this approach has the potential to be used as a method for analyzing SiNPs in other biological matrices, potentially as a way of defining SiNP uptake as a biomarker in immune-mediated diseases. © 2022 Wiley Periodicals LLC.
