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

Nanoscale advanced materials are crucial for technological innovations. Among them, nanowires stand out due to their promising confinement effects and anisotropic properties derived from their elongated structure. However, this class of nanomaterials remains relatively underexploited, primarily due to fabrication challenges. In this work, we implement an alternative method for preparing nanowire arrays by pressing liquid metal into nanoporous alumina templates with cylindrical pores. Gallium was used as the liquid metal due to its melting point near room temperature. An investigation exploring the impact of temperature and pressure on the infiltration factor and length of nanowires was performed, revealing some counterintuitive behaviors. Higher filling factors and longer nanowires were obtained at lower infiltration temperatures, closer to the solidification point, with better performance observed at intermediate infiltration pressures rather than at higher pressures. Under optimal conditions, over 10 million parallel Ga nanowires per square millimeter were produced, with an average diameter of 151 + 36 nm and a high aspect ratio of around 500.
