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

Geometric and magnetic anisotropies provide a powerful and often overlooked way to control the dynamics of field-driven active colloids, enabling directional alignment, actuation, and transport. Here, we show that thin hematite platelets exhibit multiaxial propulsion and cycloidal trajectories when driven near a surface by a conically precessing magnetic field. By balancing magnetic, viscous and gravitational torques, we explain the different dynamic states, the transition between them and the emergent orientational switching of the platelet during motion. We demonstrate that the transport modes and their stability arise from the interplay between the particle shape, the permanent magnetization and the magnetic susceptibility anisotropy. When mixed with passive, microscopic cargoes, these anisotropy-stabilized dynamic modes enable different hydrodynamic trapping regimes inaccessible to isotropic rotors.
