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

Free-standing, 2D gold nanosheets (AuNS) offer broad potential applications from computing to biosensing and healthcare. Such applications, however, require improved control of material growth. We recently reported the synthesis of AuNS only ∼0.47 nm (two atoms) thick, which exhibited very high catalytic activity. The synthesis is a one-pot, seedless procedure in which chloroauric acid is reduced by sodium citrate in the presence of methyl orange (MO). In this study, we use spectrophotometric analysis and TEM imaging to probe AuNS formation and optimize the procedure. Previously, we suggested that MO acted as the confining agent, directing two-dimensional growth of the gold. Here, we provide the first reported analysis of the HAuCl
