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

Eco-friendly, highly fluorescent, and biocompatible carbon quantum dots (CQDs) were synthesized from Typha angustifolia by the hydrothermal method. Fabricated CQDs were assessed for its bioimaging properties, anticancer potential, antibiofilm, and antioxidant activities. X-ray diffraction analysis indicates an amorphous nature, with an average particle size of 11 nm as observed in dynamic light scattering. TEM analysis revealed a uniform quasi-spherical-shaped structure. Photoluminescence studies reveal that CQDs exhibit an excitation at 390 nm with emissions at 484 nm and 474 nm. Water-soluble CQDs showed a potent antiproliferative effect against human breast cancer (MDA-MB-231) cell lines with an IC
