Centrifugally spun ZnO fibers: synthesis and antibacterial activity against
Article in RSC advances, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
In this work, a novel approach for the synthesis of zinc oxide (ZnO) fibers is presented that is based on centrifugal spinning from optimized spinning solutions, followed by tailored annealing. The resulting ZnO fibers were evaluated for their antibacterial properties and compared to commercial ZnO nanoparticles (NPs). Initially, precursor fibers were produced by centrifugal spinning using polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and zinc nitrate solutions. The as-spun fibers were subsequently annealed at 500 °C to produce ZnO fibers with an average diameter of 1 µm. The fibers were then milled for 20 seconds at a constant frequency using a ball mill, yielding an average fiber length of 6.6 µm. Comprehensive characterization was performed using SEM, XRD, and BET analyses together with evaluation of antibacterial activity against
