Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Approach for Pre-Synthesis Selection of the Optimal Physicochemical Properties of TiO
Article in Molecules (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Nanomaterials are widely used in several biomedical and environmental applications, due to their ideal properties. However, the synthetic and characterization procedure requires significant costs and has a negative environmental impact. Various methods are available in order to control the pre-synthesis design of the produced materials, predicting their behavior and minimizing the series of experiments. Multi-Criteria Decision-Making is proposed in this study in order to determine the best combination of the physicochemical parameters and to define the best alternative among fifteen different samples of nanostructured titanium dioxide. In particular, the Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) method was applied to achieve a final ranking of the available alternatives by avoiding several of the trials that would follow testing the biological effect and the photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants. Thus, this approach helps us to stay environmentally and ethically correct, saving time, money, and energy and also providing an optimization of the nanomaterials that are developed.
