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

The spatial and temporal control of self-assemblies is the latest scientific hurdle in supramolecular chemistry which is inspired by the functioning of biological systems fueled by chemical signals. In this study, we work towards alleviating this scenario by employing a unique amphiphilic foldamer that operates under the effect of a chemical fuel. The conformational changes in the foldamer amplify into observable morphological changes in its amphiphilic assembly that are controlled by external molecular cues (fuel). We take advantage of this redox responsive foldamer to affect its conformation in a temporal manner by an enzymatic pathway. The temporal characteristics of the transient conformation/assembly can be modulated by varying the concentrations of the fuel and enzyme. We believe that such a design strategy can have positive consequences in designing molecular and supramolecular systems for future active, adaptive and autonomous materials.
