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

This study reports the synthesis of thin polymeric films by the layer-by-layer deposition and covalent cross-linking of polyvinyl dimethylazlactone and polyethylene imine, which were functionalized with lauric (12-C), myristic (14-C), and palmitic (16-C) saturated fatty acids, whose high levels in the bloodstream are correlated with insulin resistance and the potential development of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Aiming to assess the effect of the fatty acids on the adhesion and proliferation of Langerhans β-cells, all prepared films (35 and 35.5 bilayers with and without functionalization with the fatty acids) were characterized in terms of their physical, chemical, and biological properties by a battery of experimental techniques including
