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

Gold nanostructures have attracted broad attention. Among various nanostructures, gold nanobipyramids have shown great potential in sensing, biomedicine, environmental protection, chemical catalysis, and optics due to their unique physical and optical properties and ease of chemical functionalization. Compared with other plasmonic nanostructures, gold nanobipyramids possess narrow optical resonances, stronger plasmonic local field enhancement, and size- and shape-dependent surface plasmon resonance. However, the synthesis and purification of homogeneous gold nanobipyramids are very challenging. The gold nanobipyramids synthesized via the commonly used seed-mediated growth method have low yields and are often coproduced with spherical nanoparticles. In this study, we reported a temperature-derived purification method for the isolation of gold bipyramids. In the presence of salt, by altering the temperature of the solution, large gold bipyramids can be separated from small spherical nanoparticles. As a result, a yield of as high as 97% gold nanobipyramids can be achieved through a single round of purification, and correspondingly, the ratio between the longitudinal surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) and transverse SPR intensity significantly increases to as high as 6.7. The purified gold nanobipyramids can be used as a colorimetric probe in the detection of tannic acid with a detection limit of 0.86 μM and a linear detection range from 1.25 to 37.5 μM.
