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

Self-assemblies of anisotropic colloidal particles into colloidal liquid crystals and well-defined superlattices are of great interest for hierarchical nanofabrications that are applicable for various functional materials. Inorganic nanosheets obtained by exfoliation of layered crystals have been highlighted as the intriguing colloidal units; however, the size polydispersity of the nanosheets has been preventing precise design of the assembled structures and their functions. Here, we demonstrate that the anionic titanate nanosheets with monodisperse size reversibly form very unusual superstructured mesophases through finely tunable weak attractive interactions between the nanosheets. Transmission electron microscopy, polarizing optical microscopy, small-angle x-ray scattering, and confocal laser scanning microscopy clarified the reversible formation of the mesophases (columnar nanofibers, columnar nematic liquid crystals, and columnar nanofiber bundles) as controlled by counter cations, nanosheet concentration, solvent, and temperature.
