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 synthesis of lycopene@silver nanoparticle bioconjugates by pulsed laser ablation in liquid was studied. The ablation product was characterised by UV-Vis optical absorption, Raman spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The experimental results were confirmed by the computational studies. Furthermore, to assess the influence of the surface plasmon on nonlinear optical (NLO) responses, in this work, we investigated the NLO properties of lycopene@silver systems using the density functional theory (DFT) approach at the M062X/6-311 + G(d,p)/LANL2DZ level. In addition to molecular descriptors, the static and dynamic (at the working wavelengths of the device, 1064 nm and 532 nm) polarizability (α), first hyperpolarizability (β), and second hyperpolarizability (γ) were calculated. Compared to the lycopene molecule, results of the lycopene@Ag
