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

The structural and dynamical properties of soft-matter systems play an important role in crystallization and nucleation theory. Despite their significance, the dynamical properties are still poorly understood because of experimental constraints and the requirement of performing measurements with high spatial and temporal resolution. Here, we demonstrate MHz X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (XPCS) using a contactless sample holder at the European X-ray Free-Electron Laser. A millimetre-sized liquid sample droplet was levitated in air via acoustic waves with the solvent slowly evaporating. A colloidal suspension of silica nanospheres was used to track the structural evolutions using small-angle X-ray scattering, and the dynamical information was captured by time-resolved MHz XPCS as a function of evaporation time. This study outlines a new path towards the investigation of metastable structure and dynamics using X-ray speckle techniques, for instance, XPCS, X-ray speckle visibility spectroscopy and X-ray cross-correlation analysis.
