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

Ongoing developments in science and technology require temperature measurements at increasingly higher spatial resolutions. Nanocrystals with temperature-sensitive luminescence are a popular thermometer for these applications offering high precision and remote read-out. Here, we demonstrate that ratiometric luminescence thermometry experiments may suffer from systematic errors in nanostructured environments. We place lanthanide-based luminescent nanothermometers at controlled distances of up to 600 nm from a Au surface. Although this geometry supports no absorption or scattering resonances, distortion of the emission spectra of the thermometers due to the modified density of optical states results in temperature read-out errors of up to 250 K. Our simple analytical model explains the effects of thermometer emission frequencies, experimental equipment, and sample properties on the magnitude of the errors. We discuss the relevance of our findings in several experimental scenarios. Such errors do not always occur, but they are expected in measurements near reflecting interfaces or scattering objects.
