Characterization of the Ultralow Interfacial Tension in Liquid-Liquid Phase Separated Polyelectrolyte Complex Coacervates by the Deformed Drop Retraction Method.
Article in Macromolecules, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Dilute droplets form upon changing the temperature of a phase separated polyelectrolyte complex coacervate. This provides an in situ approach to measure the interfacial tension between supernatant (dilute droplet) and dense coacervate by the deformed drop retraction (DDR) method. The aqueous coacervate, formed via a model 1:1 by charge stoichiometric polyelectrolyte blend, exhibits ultralow interfacial tension with the coexisting phase. DDR finds the interfacial tension scales as
