Assessment of household settled dust via silicon nanomembrane analysis pipeline (SNAP).
Article in Environmental technology & innovation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Humans spend 70-90 % of their time indoors. However, there is a significant lack of knowledge regarding human exposure to microplastic particles and fibers (MPs) within the indoor environment. Fibers comprise more than 90 % of household settled dust worldwide and have been found in indoor air. Studies have identified MPs larger than 50 μm in indoor dust, but little information is available regarding smaller airborne or settled particles. We have developed methods to detect plastic particles that are larger than 10 μm in settled household dust by distinguishing plastic from cellulosic, proteinaceous, and inorganic particles using Nile Red to stain for plastics and Trypan Blue to stain for cellulosic materials while proteinaceous and inorganic materials remain unstained but visible via transmission light microscopy on ultrathin silicon nitride nanomembranes. This method, which we term the Silicon Nanomembrane Analysis Pipeline (SNAP), allows household settled dust and other sample types to be collected and analyzed on nanomembranes by multiple modes of metrology
