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

Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have recently attracted considerable attention for various chemical and biomedical applications due to their unique properties. However, their separation from liquid solutions through magnetophoresis is challenging, as Brownian forces play a significant role when the particle size decreases below 50 nm. In this study, we investigate the separation of 27.5 nm superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) using a quadrupole magnetic sorter (QMS) with high magnetic field gradients. Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) was employed to track SPION manipulation, revealing migration in specific directions and absence of aggregation outside the field, demonstrating the particle's superparamagnetic behavior. Although the QMS exerted radial magnetophoretic forces, SPIONs also exhibited axial movement upon their removal from the magnetic field. COMSOL simulation results agreed with our experimental findings, providing insights into the axial magnetic forces that the particles were subjected to during the process. This combined SAXS and simulation approach offers valuable insights for designing novel separation systems able to isolate small nanomaterials from liquid suspensions.
