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 study, calcium carbonate nanoparticles (CCNPs) and calcium oxide nanoparticles (CONPs) are synthesized by the carbonization/calcination of calcium oleate. CONPs are an essential inorganic material, and they are used as catalysts and as effective chemisorbents for toxic gases. CCNPs are widely used in plastics, printing ink, and medicines. Here, calcium oleate is used as a starting material for the preparation of CCNPs and CONPs. This calcium oleate is prepared from calcium hydroxide and oleic acid in ethanol under mild reflux conditions. The effect of the calcination temperature of calcium oleate is examined during the synthesis of CCNPs and CONPs. By simple carbonization/calcination, calcite-type CCNPs and CONPs are prepared at <550 °C and >600 °C, respectively. The synthesized nanomaterials are analyzed by various physicochemical characterization techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) with derivative thermogravimetry (DTG), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray analysis. An X-ray diffractometer and the Scherrer formula are used to analyze the crystalline phase and crystallite size of prepared nanoparticles. TGA techniques confirm the thermal stability of the calcium oleate, CCNPs, and CONPs. The SEM analysis illustrates the dispersive behavior and cubic/spherical morphologies of CCNPs/CONPs. Furthermore, the obtained results are compared to the CCNP and CONP samples prepared using calcium hydroxide. As a result, the carbonization/calcination of calcium oleate produces monodispersed CONPs, which are then compared to the CONPs from calcium hydroxide. Additionally, from calcium oleate, CONPs can be prepared on a large scale in a cheap, convenient way, using simple equipment which can be applied in various applications.
