Enhancement of the structure and linear/nonlinear optical properties of PVA/chitosan/Ag nanocomposites for optoelectronic and antibacterial applications.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan/silver (PVA/Cs/Ag) nanocomposites are prepared using casting method for eco-friendly applications. The microstructure and optical properties are investigated using X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared and UV/Vis spectroscopy. XRD analysis revealed that the structural parameters such as lattice strain, crystallites per unit area, dislocation density and stacking fault are affected upon incorporating AgNPs. UV/Vis measurements exhibited that the indirect and direct optical bandgap are reduced from 4.34/5.22 eV for PVA/Cs blend to 3.38/4.78 eV for PVA/Cs/1wt%Ag nanocomposite. Analysis of Wemple-DiDomenico model exhibited clear enrichment of the linear/nonlinear parameters and it is found that the third order nonlinear optical parameter (χ
