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

The bending effect of self-catalyst zinc oxide nanowires on a photoconducting behavior has been investigated by in-situ scanning electron microscope method and interpreted by analytical modeling. Zinc oxide NWs tend to incline due to geometric instability and because of the piezoelectric properties, which was confirmed by scanning electron microscope images. A cantilever bending model adequately describes the bending and bundling events, which are linked to the electrostatic interaction between nanowires. The light absorption of zinc oxide nanowires in the visible and near infrared bands has been modelled using the finite difference time domain method. The influence of the density of nanowires (25%, 50%, 75%) and the integration of plasmonic nanoparticles distributed on the seed layer (with varied radii) on the light absorption of zinc oxide nanowires was studied using simulation analysis. We have shown that the geometry of zinc oxide nanowires in terms of length, separation distance, and surface charge density affects the process of zinc oxide nanowires bending and bundling and that absorption will be maximized by integrating Au plasmonic nanoparticles with a radius of 10 nm.
