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

Nanoporous films assembled by low-kinetic-energy deposition of individual nanoparticles are complex nanomaterials for a variety of applications, from gas sensing to neuromorphic computing. We develop a numerical strategy for assembling metallic nanoparticles into 25-40 nm thick films from an arbitrary distribution of Au nanoparticles in terms of their initial size and shape. We characterize the structural properties of the assembled films as a function of the initial nanoparticle distribution. The morphology of the deposited nanoparticles affects nanofilm thickness, porosity, and its internal structure, including the length, type, and density of dislocations. Film porosity and the average dislocation length mainly correlate with the size of deposited nanoparticles. At the same time, thickness and dislocation density can also be affected by the shape of the larger nanoparticles deposited.
