Development of Polyhydroxyalkanoate-Based Polyurethane with Water-Thermal Response Shape-Memory Behavior as New 3D Elastomers Scaffolds.
Article in Polymers, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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
In this study, we report the synthesis of a novel bio-based material from polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) with good shape-memory effect (SME) and rapid recovery. In this PHA-based polyurethane (PHP), telechelic-hydroxylated polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA-diols) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) were used as soft segments, providing thermo-responsive domains and water-responsive regions, respectively. Thus, PHP possesses good thermal-responsive SME, such as high shape fixing (>99%) and shape recovery ratio (>90%). Upon immersing in water, the storage modulus of PHP decreased considerably owing to disruption of hydrogen bonds in the PHP matrix. Their water-responsive SME is also suitable for rapid shape recovery (less than 10 s). Furthermore, these outstanding properties can trigger shape-morphing, enabling self-folding and self-expansion of shapes into three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds for potential biomedical applications.
