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

Nanobiotechnology has grown rapidly and is now widely used in the diagnosis and treatment of modern diseases. Biosynthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are eco-friendly, cost-effective, biocompatible route, and have biomedical properties at minimal concentrations. In the present study extract of cyanobacterium (Anabaena variabilis) was utilized to synthesize facile, reliable AgNPs, further biosynthesized AgNPs were characterized by physicochemical techniques. The atomic force microscope study confirmed the shape of AgNPs while the scanning electron microscopy study revealed 17 to 35 nm in the size range. The zeta potential value of -19.5 mV demonstrated the repulsion effect between the particles, which prevents their aggregations while the heating stability of AgNPs was confirmed by Thermogravimetry differential thermal analysis. Another important characteristic, such as elemental constituent of AgNPs was determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and was observed 94.24, 95.19, 97.06, and 99.34% of silver present in their respective concentrations of AgNPs. In vitro cytotoxicity of AgNPs was screened on HeLa, SiHa, (Cervical carcinoma), and HepG2 (Human hepatocellular carcinoma), cell lines. To evaluate the biocompatibility of AgNPs immortalized human embryonic kidney (HEK-293) cell line was used. The IC
