Carbon Quantum Dots from Amino Acids Revisited: Survey of Renewable Precursors toward High Quantum-Yield Blue and Green Fluorescence.
Article in ACS omega, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 27 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
Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) were synthesized via a green, one-step hydrothermal method. As CQD precursors, nine amino acids of different structural descriptors (negatively/positively charged in water, polar, hydrophobic, sulfur-containing, and other/complex ones) were surveyed: Asp, Cys, Gly, His, Leu, Lys, Phe, Pro, and Ser. The reactions were performed in an autoclave in the presence of citric acid at 180 °C for 24 h and yielded core-shell CQDs. CQDs were comprehensively characterized by transmission electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering, Raman, UV/Vis, infrared, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and fluorescence spectroscopy.
