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

Optical tweezers utilize the forces exerted by focused laser beams to trap particles. In optofluidic force induction (OF2i), the forces exerted by a weakly focused laser beam trap particles in the transverse directions and push them in the laser propagation direction, which can be utilized for optical nanoparticle characterization with single-particle sensitivity. Here, we present a unified approach for the simulation of nanoparticles propagating in the presence of fluidic and optical forces, which can be used for both optical tweezers and OF2i simulations. We demonstrate the working principle at a number of selected examples and provide the simulation software as an add-on to our generic Maxwell solver NANOBEM that is based on a boundary element method approach.
