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

Nanocrystalline (NC) materials have widespread industrial usage. X-ray and neutron diffraction techniques are primary tools for studying the structural and microstructural features of NC materials. Selected area electron diffraction (SAED) patterns collected using a transmission electron microscope (TEM) on polycrystalline nanostructured materials, featuring nested rings, that are analogous to Debye-Scherrer patterns, possess similar potentials to aid materials characterisation. The utility of SAED patterns is further enhanced by the possibility of applying crystallographic approaches, like full pattern fitting procedures, based on Rietveld refinement algorithms, enabling the evaluation of material features, such as crystallite size, lattice distortions, defect structures, and the presence of secondary phases even from very small volume scale. In this paper, we have discussed the possibilities afforded by a Rietveld code applied to SAED patterns of NC materials, including the mathematical implementation of the two-beam dynamical correction model in MAUD software (version 2.9995), and a critical discussion of the results obtained on different NC materials.
