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

As a kind of newly developed scintillator, copper cluster scintillators have garnered considerable attention due to their atomically precise structures and multiple advantages such as low toxicity, facile synthesis and outstanding X-ray excited luminescence (XEL) properties. The copper cluster scintillators have been successfully applied in various fields including low-dose radiation detection, X-ray imaging, and the monitoring of α/β particles, suggesting that they are a highly active research field. This review focuses on recent advancements in copper cluster scintillators and comprehensively summarize the luminescence mechanisms and design strategies employed to tailor the XEL of copper clusters, copper halide clusters and copper cluster-based assembly materials. This review also presents the novel applications derived from the as-obtained copper cluster scintillators, along with the underlying structure-functionality correlations.
