Carbon Dots as an Emergent Class of Sustainable Antifungal Agents.
Review in ACS nano, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Carbon-based functional nanomaterials with distinct photoluminescent properties have gained significant attention for their diverse applications in bioimaging, biomedicine, and antimicrobial treatments. Among these, carbon dots (CDs) have emerged as promising fluorescent nanomaterials due to their inherent photoluminescence properties, high stability, water solubility, ease of functionalization, biocompatibility, and low synthetic cost. Many strategies have been developed for their synthesis, utilizing a myriad of carbon precursors from small molecules to bulk or waste materials, which influence their structural and photoluminescent properties. Their fluorescence emission and functionality can be tuned through heteroatom doping, surface modifications, and reaction conditions, making them highly tunable nanomaterials suitable for applications in sensing, catalysis, anticancer and antimicrobial treatments, and biomedical imaging. This review explores various types of synthesized CDs, their structural features, and their applications in fungal bioimaging, antifungal therapies, and protective food packaging to demonstrate their potential in combating fungal resistance and contamination challenges.
