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

This work highlights the dominating role of the capping ligand 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (2-MBT) in the synthesis of a silver nanocluster (AgNC). AgNC was synthesized through ligand exchange (LE) in a two-phase reaction system by reacting a preformed water-soluble glutathione (GSH)-stabilized silver nanocluster (Ag-SGNC) with 2-MBT dissolved in dichloromethane. We observed the formation of a fluorescent AgNC in the organic phase from the nonfluorescent Ag-SGNC. The composition of the nanocluster was determined with the help of UV-vis spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, MALDI mass spectrometry, and thermogravimetric analysis. We recently synthesized Ag
