Biodegradable Aurum: Gold Nanosheets Undergo Biodegradation by Neutrophil Myeloperoxidase.
Article in Small science, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Though gold nanomaterials (NMs) have been largely used in biomedical applications for decades, none have been approved for clinical usage, mostly due to a lack of understanding about their long-term fate and non-biodegradability. Here, the biodegradability of 2D Au nanosheets (AuNS) by enzymatic catalysis of human myeloperoxidase (hMPO) using a test-tube model and an in vitro model with MPO-secreting neutrophil-like cells (present in the blood) differentiated from human leukemia (HL-60) cells has been reported. The results obtained from the high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), selected area diffraction (SAED), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) confirm that the AuNS undergoes partial biodegradation to Au
