Eco-Friendly Synthesis of Cerium Nanoparticles Using Spirulina platensis: Assessing Antibacterial and Anti-inflammatory Efficacy.
Article in Cureus, 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
introduction
objectiveThis study aimed to utilize METHODOLOGY:
resultThe green synthesis of cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO-NPs) using Spirulina, a sustainable and eco-friendly method has potential application in antibacterial and anti-inflammatory therapies. This study focuses on the green synthesis of CeO-NPs and characterizes them by using UV-Vis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), SEM, and EDX. The UV-vis analysis confirmed the presence of CeO-NPs at a wavelength of 320 nm. FT-IR reveals four functional groups, such as C-O, N-O, and C=C stretches. XRD analysis showed higher crystalline and less amorphous content. SEM and EDX spectra were utilized to confirm the morphology (agglomerated square shape) and the elemental composition [Ce, O, C] in the CeO-NPs. The antibacterial activity was evaluated against multidrug-resistant (MDR) clinical strains and the anti-inflammatory activity revealed significant activity in a dose-dependent manner.
conclusionThis study concluded that Spirulina-mediated CeO-NPs have potential as a drug in biomedical assays. Further in vitro and in vivo analysis is required to fully confirm their viability as a potential drug.
