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 dynamics of initial layer-by-layer growth and subsequent nucleation of quantum dots of Si and Ge on Si(001) were studied combining reflection high-energy electron diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. It was shown that the processes occurring at the initial stage determine further growth of the heterostructure and final shape and density of nanoislands. The mechanisms of terrace formation, occurrence and dynamics of dimer rows of the 2 ×
