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 paper, as-synthesized and oleic acid (OA)-surface-treated zinc oxide (ZnO) nanocrystals were successfully synthesized and investigated for cool-nanopigment applications. ZnO nanocrystals were synthesized using the thermal decomposition method. The OA-surface-treated ZnO sample was obtained with an OA:ZnO ratio of 1:1. The structural, optical and morphological properties of the samples were characterized via X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), UV-VIS-NIR diffused reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) and field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) techniques. ZnO nanocrystals possess a well-known zincate phase of ZnO, as confirmed for the as-synthesized sample with a reduction in the integrity of the ZnO crystalline structure upon the application of the OA coating. XRD peaks broadening and decreasing in crystallite size were obtained upon the surface modification of the ZnO by OA. The average crystallite size decreased from 31.5 to 17.4 nm, and the surface area changed from 23.37 to 7.48 m
