Applications of Silver Nanoparticles in Patent Research.
Article in Recent patents on nanotechnology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundSilver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been widely applied in research and industrial fields, finding applications in nanomedicine, drug delivery, biomedical devices, electronics, the energy sector, and environmental protection. Patents provide information on the industrial viability of product technologies, and the number of patent documents provides an estimate of the evolution of a specific technological field.
aimsThe present work aims to describe the current trends in AgNPs patent applications. In addition, a retrospective study of published patents in Brazil is presented.
methodsAnalyses of AgNPs-related patents were conducted using the free platform for patent search Lens® in 2010-2019 and articles published in same period using the Scholar® base. The patent applications and their evolution over time, major depositors and holders, and the main technological areas associated with AgNP applications have been described.
resultsChina and United States are the major patent applicants for nanotechnologies. The worldwide distribution of publications of journal articles shows that China, India, and the United States are the leading countries in the total number of articles published, in that order.
conclusionOur study of patent applications and published articles confirmed the growing global increase in new technologies involving NPs and AgNPs, particularly in the biotechnology area, in the fields of medicine and agriculture.
