Single-Crystal Silicon Nanotubes, Hollow Nanocones, and Branched Nanotube Networks.
Article in ACS nano, 2024. 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
We report a general approach for the synthesis of single-crystal silicon nanotubes, involving epitaxial deposition of silicon shells on germanium nanowire templates followed by removal of the germanium template by selective wet etching. By exploiting advances in the synthesis of germanium nanowires, we were able to rationally tune the nanotube internal diameters (5-80 nm), wall thicknesses (3-12 nm), and taper angles (0-9°) and additionally demonstrated branched silicon nanotube networks. Field effect transistors fabricated from p-type nanotubes exhibited a strong gate effect, and fluid transport experiments demonstrated that small molecules could be electrophoretically driven through the nanotubes. These results demonstrate the suitability of silicon nanotubes for the design of nanoelectrofluidic devices.
