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

We present a scaling model based on a moving boundary picture to describe heterogeneous gelation dynamics. The dynamics of gelation induced by different gelation mechanisms is expressed by the scaled equation for the time taken for development of the gel layer with a few kinetic coefficients characterizing the system. The physical meaning obtained by the analysis for a simple boundary condition from the standpoint of the phase transition shows that the time development of the gelation layer depends on whether the dynamics of the order parameter expressing the gelation of the polymer solution is fast or slow compared with the diffusion of the gelators in the heterogeneous gelation. The analytical method is used to understand the coagulation of blood from various animals. An experiment using systems with plasma coagulation occurring at interfaces with calcium chloride solution and with packed erythrocytes is performed to provide the data for model fitting and it is clarified that a few key kinetic coefficients in plasma coagulation can be estimated from the analysis of gelation dynamics.
