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
This work demonstrates direct visualization and deterministic control of quasi-monoenergetic proton shock waves from isolated gold nanoparticles under intense femtosecond laser irradiation. Using single-shot nano-velocity map imaging, we observe a continuous circular shock wave profile in momentum space, reflecting the formation of a symmetric proton shell in space. Two-stage simulations, combining a modified particle-in-cell method with a dissipative Gross-Pitaevskii equation, reveal their formation and expansion on femtosecond-picosecond timescales. Crucially, the proton shock wave energy can be modulated by tuning the laser intensity. These findings provide fundamental insights into strong-field nanoplasma dynamics and establish a practical scheme for compact, laser-driven ion sources with on-demand energy tunability.
