Adsorption-Coupled Oxidation of Single Ag Nanoparticles as Resolved by Stochastic Scanning Electrochemical Microscopy.
Article in Analytical chemistry, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The oxidation of Ag nanoparticles at the ultramicroelectrode (UME) has been extensively studied at the single-particle level for fundamental electrochemistry and electroanalytical sensing. The fast oxidation of a Ag nanoparticle is preceded by the adsorption of the nanoparticle, which can kinetically lower the frequency of amperometric spikes as an important analytical measure. Herein, we combine stochastic amperometry with scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) to quantitatively assess the adsorption kinetics of Ag nanoparticles on the Pt UME tip. We developed a theoretical model to simulate the dependence of the collision frequency on the adsorption rate constant and the distance between the tip and an insulating substrate. Experimentally, we confirm the advantage of SECM to determine the adsorption rate constant and diffusion coefficient (or concentration) of nanoparticles when the concentration (or diffusion coefficient) is known. We find that the maximum collision frequency based on the diffusion-limited adsorption of Ag nanoparticles requires a large contact area of a polished and cleaned tip with the nanoparticles. The adsorption of Ag nanoparticles is accelerated by citrate caps, which can be oxidatively chemisorbed on the Pt tip to enable a new covalent mode of nanoparticle-electrode interactions. SECM provides useful mechanistic insights into a deeper understanding of nanoparticle-electrode interactions for superior electrochemical detection.
