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

Green synthesis is a method in which metal nanoparticles (MNPs) are produced by using biological synthesizing agents, including plant extracts. Copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) are used in a wide range of biological and non-biological sciences due to their unique physical and chemical properties. The research aim is to investigate the potential of producing CuNPs with cinnamon plant extract. Synthesis of CuNPs was done with the hydroalcoholic extract of the cinnamon plant. The Tyndall effect, ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis), dynamic light Scattering (DLS), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), zeta potential (Zeta-P), raman spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), atomic force microscope (AFM), and x-ray diffraction (XRD) were used for evaluating CuNPs. Cytotoxic effects of nanoparticles (NPs) were measured. The average size of CuNPs is 40 nm and spherical, homogeneous, with uniform particle size. The highest cytotoxicity of NPs occurred after 48 h. Green synthesis of NPs using edible and medicinal plants such as cinnamon i.e. a suitable option due to its low cost, environmental friendliness, and easy process. In this research, the results indicate that the synthesized CuNPs have strong cytotoxic effects.
