Self-assembly of highly ordered micro- and nanoparticle deposits.
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 8 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
The evaporation of particle-laden sessile droplets is associated with capillary-driven outward flow and leaves nonuniform coffee-ring-like particle patterns due to far-from-equilibrium effects. Traditionally, the surface energies of the drop and solid phases are tuned, or external forces are applied to suppress the coffee-ring; however, achieving a uniform and repeatable particle deposition is extremely challenging. Here, we report a simple, scalable, and noninvasive technique that yields uniform and exceptionally ordered particle deposits on a microscale surface area by placing the droplet on a near neutral-wet shadow mold attached to a hydrophilic substrate. The simplicity of the method, no external forces, and no tuning materials' physiochemical properties make the present generic approach an excellent candidate for a wide range of sensitive applications. We demonstrate the utility of this method for fabricating ordered mono- and multilayer patternable coatings, producing nanofilters with controlled pore size, and creating reproducible functionalized nanosensors.
