Controllable Synthesis of Biocompatible Fluorescent Carbon Dots From Cellulose Hydrogel for the Specific Detection of Hg
Article in Frontiers in bioengineering and biotechnology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
Heavy metal ions overload can seriously harm human health. Simple and effective strategies for the specific detection of heavy metal ions are of great important. In this work, using different pretreatment methods, a series of carbon dots (CDs) with different particle sizes and doped with varying amounts of elements (O, N, S) were prepared based on the natural polymer, cellulose hydrogel. The CDs exhibit excellent fluorescence and biocompatibility. When the particle size decreased from 8.72 to 2.11 nm, the fluorescence quantum yield increased from 0.029 to 0.183. In addition, doping with elements (N) also effectively enhanced the fluorescent performance of the CDs. The fluorescence of the CDs, especially for the smallest, CD-4a, was significantly quenched in the presence of the heavy metal ion, Hg
