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 ability to induce and characterize strain in the atomic lattice of 2D materials, localized within only a few nanometers around specific positions, is a major challenge for the development of straintronics. In this work, the interaction between Si nanoparticles and the surface of graphene/Ru(0001) is employed to induce local strain in the latter. The strain field has been mapped at the nanoscale by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), using the moiré pattern intrinsic to graphene/Ru(0001) surfaces as a magnifying lens. The induced strain is found to be confined within only a few nanometers around each nanoparticle. To achieve more accurate control, strain engineering at the nanometer scale was successfully performed by manipulating nanoparticles through the STM tip. This approach to controlled strain could provide a key tool for exploring new physics arising from strain in 2D materials.
