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

Size-selected gas-phase aggregated metal clusters have long been considered as embryos of materials. However, a significant proportion of these clusters are susceptive to damage when exiting vacuum. Consequently, effective protection is highly desirable. Here a cluster packaging and protection strategy is presented based on controllable cluster beam implantation into polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). In this strategy, the size selection of gas-phase clusters and the synergistic heating of PMMA during implantation are combined, thereby achieving nondestructive packaging of atomically precise cluster under soft-landing conditions. The packaged clusters exhibit robust and universal protection. Robustness is reflected in the unaltered oxidation resistance of Mo clusters after exposure to air for over 30 days, as well as the effective agglomeration resistance at temperatures up to 100 °C or in liquid. Universality is demonstrated by the successful protection of a wide range of size-selected clusters, including Mo clusters ranging from Mo
