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

Cyclodextrins (CDs) are known for their ability to form supramolecular interactions with a wide range of guest molecules. In this review, focus is given on the inclusion of complex aurate ions such as tetrabromoaurate, dicyanoaurate and a few other tetrahaloaurates. The review describes the properties of self-assembly of cyclodextrins with these ions, with highlight to α-CD and, more recently, β-CD, requiring the use of a co-former/precipitating agent. Practical applications of this ability are directed to the selective isolation of gold from a variety of sources, spanning from gold-rich mining ores and tailings/mining wastes to gold-bearing metal scraps obtained from disposed electronic devices. Moreover, it describes the development of a method based on spontaneous complex formation between α-CD and tetrabromoaurate and its current status of use in a few mining sites in the United States.
