Oscillatory zoning of minerals as a fingerprint of impurity-mediated growth.
Article in Scientific reports, 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 propose a kinetic mathematical model of the oscillatory compositional zoning profile recorded in minerals based on the crystal growth suppression induced by impurities. Notably, the presence of a small amount of impurities significantly inhibits crystal growth, and a growth inhibition mechanism called the pinning effect is widely accepted. Here we show that a model that considers the pinning effect and adsorption/desorption kinetics of impurities on the crystal surface can reproduce the oscillatory compositional zoning. As impurities are common in nature, this model suggests the existence of a universal mechanism that can occur in the growth processes of various crystals.
