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

Graphene, a two-dimensional nanomaterial with excellent physicochemical properties, has considerable potential to functionalize surfaces for diverse applications. However, reliable methods for preparing uniform conformal graphene on complex surfaces are still limited. In this study, we develop a practical strategy for the direct growth of conformal graphene coatings on silicon substrates textured with randomly distributed micropyramidal structures. The produced transfer-free graphene exhibits high uniformity (monolayer content ∼95%), low defect density, and excellent conformality, even across high-curvature features, such as micropyramid apexes. The graphene films not only faithfully replicate the underlying microstructures but also contribute to advantageous surface properties, including strong fluorescence quenching, excellent chemical stability, enhanced molecular adsorption, and improved charge-transfer interactions. All these properties are crucial for effective surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). This graphene-coated pyramidal substrate enabled reproducible and stable SERS detection of rhodamine 6G (R6G), exhibiting high sensitivity with a detection limit of ∼10
