Modeling and Analysis of the Capillary Force for Interactions of Different Tip/Substrate in AFM Based on the Energy Method.
Article in ACS measurement science au, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
This paper presents a simple and robust model to describe the wet adhesion of the AFM tip and substrate joined by a liquid bridge. The effects of contact angles, wetting circle radius, the volume of a liquid bridge, the gap between the AFM tip and substrate, environmental humidity, and tip geometry on the capillary force are studied. To model capillary forces, while a circular approximation for the meniscus of the bridge is assumed, the combination of the capillary adhesion due to the pressure difference across the free surface and the vertical component of the surface tension forces acting tangentially to the interface along the contact line is utilized. Finally, the validity of the proposed theoretical model is verified using numerical analysis and available experimental measurements. The results of this study can provide a basis to model the hydrophobic and hydrophilic tip/surfaces and study their effect on adhesion force between the AFM tip and the substrate.
