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
Branched Au nanoparticles (Au NPs) can significantly enhance the Raman signal of trace chemical substances, and have attracted the interest of researchers. However, there are still challenges to accurately prepare the morphology of branched Au NPs. In this work, we have successfully prepared sea urchin-like Au NPs and Au nanowires by using the seed-mediate growth method, with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and glutathione as ligands, and ascorbic acid as a reducing agent. Using Au NPs with a tetrahexahedron (THH) morphology as seeds, and by simply changing the concentration of glutathione, we explored the growth process of sea urchin-like Au and Au nanowires. At low concentrations of glutathione, Au NPs will preferentially grow along the edges and corners of the THH Au seed, forming a core/satellite structure. As the concentration of glutathione increases, Au NPs will grow along the direction of glutathione, forming sea urchin-like Au NPs. To further increase the concentration of glutathione, we will prepare Au nanowires. In addition, we use the prepared Au NPs as a substrate material for surface-enhanced Raman (SERS) high-sensitivity detection. By using 4-aminothiophenol (4-ATP) as the test molecule, we evaluated the SERS effect of the prepared Au NPs with different morphologies. The results showed that sea urchin-like Au NPs have the best enhancement effect. The lowest concentrations of Rhodamine 6G and 4-ATP were 10
