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

An easy and environment-friendly route for antibacterial coating suited for mobile phone glass protectors was successfully demonstrated. In this route, freshly prepared chitosan solution in 1% v/v acetic acid was added with 0.1 M silver nitrate solution and 0.1 M sodium hydroxide solution and incubated with agitation at 70 °C to form chitosan-silver nanoparticles (ChAgNPs). Varied concentrations of chitosan solution (i.e., 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8% w/v) were used to investigate its particle size, size distribution, and later on, its antibacterial activity. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) imaging revealed that the smallest average diameter of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was 13.04 nm from 0.8% w/v chitosan solution. Further characterizations of the optimal nanocomposite formulation using UV-vis spectroscopy and Fourier transfer infrared spectroscopy were also performed. Using a dynamic light scattering zetasizer, the average ζ-potential of the optimal ChAgNP formulation was at +56.07 mV, showing high aggregative stability and an average ChAgNP size of 182.37 nm. The ChAgNP nanocoating on glass protectors shows antibacterial activity against
