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

Boron nitride nanosheets (BNNSs) have been widely used in many fields due to their excellent properties. However, low preparation rates and difficulty in functionalization hinder their further development. This study proposes a novel glucose-assisted ultrasonic cavitation exfoliation (GAUCE) method with glucose as an auxiliary solution to prepare BNNSs. Results show that the method has a high preparation yield of 55.58%, which is higher than the average preparation yield of 33.86%. The mechanism of preparing BNNSs by GAUCE was also investigated. The exfoliation of BNNSs was achieved using the energy of ultrasonic cavitation bubble collapse, which will break the interlayer forces in h-BN. The grafting of hydroxyl groups decomposed by glucose on the edge and surface of BNNSs during cavitation prevented the re-aggregation of the nanosheets, thereby increasing the exfoliation yield of BNNSs. In addition, the contact angle of BNNSs prepared by GAUCE was reduced, and the hydrophilicity was greatly improved.
