Diamond thin films: a twenty-first century material. Part 2: a new hope.
Review in Philosophical transactions. Series A, Mathematical, physical, and engineering sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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.
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
Nearly a quarter of a century ago, we wrote a review paper about the very new technology of chemical vapour deposition (CVD) of diamond thin films. We now update this review and bring the story up to date by describing the progress made-or not made-over the intervening years. Back in the 1990s and early 2000s, there was enormous excitement about the plethora of applications that were suddenly possible now that diamonds could be fabricated in the form of thin films. Diamond was hailed as the ultimate semiconductor, and it was believed that the few remaining problems would be quickly solved, leading to a new 'diamond age' of electronics. In reality, however, difficulty in making large-area diamond wafers and the elusiveness of a useful
