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

In this work, we studied the initiated plasmonic nanobubbles and the follow-up microbubble in gold nanorod (GNR) colloidal solution induced by a pulsed laser. Owing to the surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-enhanced photothermal effect of GNR, several nanobubbles are initiated at the beginning of illumination and then to trigger the optical breakdown of water at the focal spot of a laser beam. Consequently, microbubble generation is facilitated; the threshold of pulsed laser energy is significantly reduced for the generation of microbubbles in water with the aid of GNRs. We used a probing He-Ne laser with a photodetector and an ultrasonic transducer to measure and investigate the dynamic formations of nanobubbles and the follow-up microbubble in GNR colloids. Two wavelengths (700 nm and 980 nm) of pulsed laser beams are used to irradiate two kinds of dilute GNR colloids with different longitudinal SPRs (718 nm and 966 nm). By characterizing the optical and photoacoustic signals, three types of microbubbles are identified: a single microbubble, a coalesced microbubble of multiple microbubbles, and a splitting microbubble. The former is caused by a single breakdown, whereas the latter two are caused by discrete and series-connected multiple breakdowns, respectively. We found that the thresholds of pulsed energy to induce different types of microbubbles are reduced as the concentration of GNRs increases, particularly when the wavelength of the laser is in the near-infrared (NIR) region and close to the SPR of GNRs. This advantage of a dilute GNR colloid facilitating the laser-induced microbubble in the NIR range of the bio-optical window could make biomedical applications available. Our study may provide an insight into the relationship between plasmonic nanobubbles and the triggered microbubbles.
