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 emergence of multidrug-resistant pathogens and the growing burden of cancer worldwide demand novel therapeutic approaches. This study evaluated the biological activities of green-synthesized titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO₂ NPs) using Bacillus cereus cell-free supernatant and titanium tetra-isopropoxide precursor. Nanoparticles were analyzed and standard methods were employed to evaluate the antimicrobial, antibiofilm, and cell cytotoxicity. UV-Vis spectroscopy confirmed the synthesis of TiO₂ NPs with a characteristic peak at 360 nm. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed roughly spherical particles (8.8 ± 3 nm diameter). A Z-average hydrodynamic diameter of 328.1 nm (PDI, 0.439) was revealed by dynamic light scattering (DLS). According to the energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) results, oxygen was 42.39% and titanium was 45.93%. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurement confirmed a crystalline anatase structure, with a prominent peak at 25.3° 2θ. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) detected the characteristic Ti-O-Ti and vibrational band at 403.31 cm⁻
