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

Antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains are an ever-present hurdle for human health. A route to overcoming this threat is the development of effective antimicrobial agents based on carbon-supported nanocomposites. In this study, carbon dots (CD) are synthesized by a facile hydrothermal treatment of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and melamine and further functionalized with nickel hydroxide colloids. Whereas CD alone exhibits virtually no antimicrobial activity under photoirradiation at 365 nm against Escherichia coli in comparison to the blank control, the performance is markedly enhanced with the Ni(OH)
