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

Inkjet printing of silicon nanoparticle (Si NP) inks and their inherent color asymmetry in reflection and transmission is demonstrated. The optical response of Si NP-dispersed films was initially analyzed using Monte Carlo simulations, which elucidated the physical origin of the asymmetric color appearance. Guided by these theoretical insights, water-based Si NP inks incorporating an acrylic resin were formulated and applied to inkjet printing. The printed films exhibited vivid structural colors with pronounced differences between their reflective and transmissive hues. Furthermore, multicolor patterns with tunable optical asymmetry were produced by employing Si NPs of different diameters. These results highlight the potential of Si NPs as scalable structural-color pigments for multicolor dichroic decorations in applications such as art, anti-counterfeiting, and semitransparent smart windows.
