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

A NO-delivery platform has been fabricated from polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and Pluronic(®) F127 gel that contains the light-sensitive NO donor, [Mn(PaPy(3))(NO)]ClO(4). The material was assembled layer-by-layer. First, a thin PDMS membrane was cast. It was then layered with cold 25% (w/v) Pluronic(®) F127 gel mixed with [Mn(PaPy(3))(NO)]ClO(4). Finally, it was covered with a thick layer (nearly impermeable to NO) of PDMS (=polydimethoxysiloxane) to allow release of NO only from the thinner side upon exposure to light. Light-induced NO release from this layered material has been confirmed via NO-specific electrode and by a modified soft Griess-agar assay. Incorporation of ca. 8 mg/g of [Mn(PaPy(3))(NO)]ClO(4) in the Pluronic gel layer affords a material that drastically reduces the microbial loads of Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa via the antibiotic effects of the photoreleased NO. Application of this flexible layered NO-donating composite as bandage material has been proposed.
