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 purpose of this study was to synthesize diaminated starch as a novel mucoadhesive polymer. Starch was tosylated and then reacted with ethylenediamine. The degree of amination was determined by 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid assay. Properties of diaminated starch including solubility, cytotoxicity, swelling behavior, and mucoadhesion were compared to chitosan. Diaminated starch displayed 2083 ± 121.6 μmol of diamine substructures/g of polymer. At pH 6, diaminated starch exhibited a ζ potential of 6 mV, whereas it was close to zero in the case of unmodified starch. In addition, diaminated starch displayed water solubility over the entire pH range and minor cytotoxicity. The novel polymer showed pronounced swelling behavior in water increasing its initial weight 18- and 6-fold at pH 5 and 6, respectively. Moreover, diaminated starch exhibited 92-fold higher-mucoadhesivity properties than those of chitosan. According to these results, diaminated starch might be a promising novel excipient for the design of mucoadhesive formulations.
