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

Oxidized carbon nanohorn (CNHox) a carbon nanomaterial that has attracted attention due to its unique material properties. It is expected to be applied in various areas like cancer treatment, gene-expression technology, fluids with high thermal conductivity, lubricants, and so on. While the rheological measurements of suspensions provide information on the effective size and interactions of suspended particles, the rheological behaviors of aqueous suspensions of CNHox have never been systematically investigated. To clarify the rheological behaviors of aqueous suspensions of CNHox, their viscosity and dynamic viscoelasticity were measured with changing particle concentration and salt concentration. The viscosity of a CNHox suspension showed yield stress at low shear rates and showed shear-thinning behavior with increasing shear rates. The viscosity of 5 weight % CNHox suspensions was comparable to that of 60 weight % silica suspensions. This high viscosity at a low CNHox concentration is probably due to the porous structure and large effective volume of the CNHox particle. The estimated effective volume of CNHox calculated by the Krieger-Dougherty equation was 18.9 times larger than the actual volume calculated by the mass concentration and density. The dependence of rheological behavior of the CNHox suspension on salt concentration was weak compared to that of the colloidal silica suspension. This weak dependence on salt concentration may be due to the roughness of the particle surface, which would weaken the effect of electric double-layer interactions and/or van der Waals interactions between particles. These rheological behaviors of the aqueous suspension of CNHox shown in this research will be useful in efforts to improve the efficiency of its utilization for the various applications.
