Spiral growth of multicomponent crystals: theoretical aspects.
Article in Frontiers in chemistry, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This paper presents recent advances in the theory of multicomponent crystal growth from gas or solution, focusing on the most common step-flow mechanisms: Burton-Cabrera-Frank, Chernov, and Gilmer-Ghez-Cabrera. Analytical expressions for the spiral crystal growth rate are presented, taking into account the properties of all species involved in the growth process. The paper also outlines theoretical approaches to consider these mechanisms in multicomponent systems, providing a foundation for future developments and exploration of previously unexplored effects. Some special cases are discussed, including the formation of nanoislands of pure components on the surface and their self-organization, the impact of applied mechanical stress on the growth rate, and the mechanisms of its influence on growth kinetics. The growth due to chemical reactions on the surface is also considered. Possible future directions for developing the theory are outlined. A brief overview of numerical approaches and software codes that are useful in theoretical studies of crystal growth is also given.
