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

Phase-change memory (PCM) technology has recently attracted a vivid interest for neuromorphic applications, in-memory computing, and photonic integration due to the tunable refractive index and electrical conductivity between the amorphous and crystalline material states. Despite this, it is increasingly challenging to scale down the device dimensions of conventionally sputtered PCM memory arrays, restricting the implementation of PCM technology in mass applications such as consumer electronics. Here, we report the synthesis and structural study of sub-10 nm Cu-Ge-Te (CGT) nanoparticles as suitable candidates for low-cost and ultrasmall PCM devices. We show that our synthesis approach can accurately control the structure of the CGT colloids, such as composition-tuned CGT amorphous nanoparticles as well as crystalline CGT nanoparticles with trigonal α-GeTe and tetragonal Cu
