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

Colloidal lithography is used to design and construct a high-performance plasmonic sensor based on Ag nanocone arrays embedded with Ag NPs. The surface plasmon polariton (SPP) of the Ag nanocone array and the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of Ag NPs inside the nanocones can both couple incident photons. Sharp reflectance troughs are considerably enhanced by coupling the SPPs and LSPR, which is made possible by carefully tuning the nanocone sizes. To maximize the line shape and sensitivity, other geometric factors, such as the thickness of the silver layer and the size of the Ag NPs, are modified. Finite-difference time-domain computations confirm these hypotheses and experimental findings. We use well-researched solvents with various refractive indices as a model system to demonstrate good sensing performance as a proof of concept. The crystal used in this investigation has the ideal refractive index sensitivity, having 500 nm lattice constant, 350 nm nanocone height, and 350 nm base diameter (aspect ratio = 1). The Ag nanocone array embedded with Ag NPs is a good contender for a sensing platform due to its compact structure and efficient read-out apparatus.
