Comparative study on the influence of rare earth ion doping on the structural and optical properties of simple B
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
In this study, a series of sodium borate glasses with the general composition 50 mol% B₂O₃ - (50-x) mol% Na₂O - x mol% RE₂O₃ (where RE = La, Nd, Gd, Ho, Er, Yb and x = 0 and 1 mol%) were synthesized via the melt-quenching technique. This study aims to systematically investigate the effect of substituting different rare earth ions into a fixed sodium borate glass matrix to understand their role in modifying structural and optical properties. XRD analysis confirmed the amorphous nature of all glass samples. FTIR spectra showed structural transformations marked by an increase in BO₄ units and suppression of boroxol rings with rare earth doping. Density and molar volume increased from 2.42 to 2.49 g/cm
