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

Magnetic nano/microrotors are passive elements spinning around an axis due to an external rotating field while remaining confined to a plane. They have been used to date in different applications related to fluid mixing, drug delivery, or biomedicine. Here we realize an active version of a magnetic microgyroscope which is simultaneously driven by a photoactivated catalytic reaction and a rotating magnetic field. We investigate the uplift dynamics of this colloidal spinner when it precesses around its long axis while self-propelling due to the light induced decomposition of hydrogen peroxide in water. By combining experiments with theory, we show that activity emerging from the cooperative action of phoretic and osmotic forces effectively increases the gravitational torque, which counteracts the magnetic and viscous ones, and carefully measure its contribution. Finally, we demonstrate that by modulating the field amplitude, one can induce hysteresis loops in the uplift dynamics of the spinners.
