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

Water plays important roles in organic reactions such as polyurethane synthesis, and the aqueous solution environment affects polymer morphology and other properties. This paper focuses on the morphology and surface properties of waterborne polyurethane resulting from the organic reaction in water involving different forms (solid and liquid), temperatures and aqueous solutions. We provide evidence from TEM observations that the appearance of polyurethane nanoparticles in aqueous solutions presents diverse forms, including imperfect spheres, perfect spheres, perfect and homogenous spheres and tubes. Based on the results on FTIR, GPC, AFM and XRD experiments, we suggest that the shape of the nanoparticles may be decided by the crimp degree (i.e., the degree of polyurethane chains intertangling in the water environment) and order degree, which are determined by the molecular weight (M
