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

In this work, optimized conditions for preparation of chitosan and hyaluronan polyelectrolyte complex are proposed. The objective was to produce new biomaterials being biocompatible and bioresorbable in the body as well as approaching the extracellular matrix (ECM) structure. These materials will be tested for chondrocyte development in tissue engineering and wound healing applications. Nanofibers made of the polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) were successfully manufactured by electrospinning, and casted films were used as a model for properties comparison. To our knowledge, it is the first time that stable chitosan/hyaluronan fibers are produced, which were observed to be long-lasting in buffer at pH~7.4. The role of thermal treatment at 120 °C for 4 h is examined to control the degree of swelling by crosslinking of the two polysaccharides by H-bonds and amide bonds formation. The properties of the materials are tested for different PEC compositions at different pH values, based on swelling and solubility degrees, diameters of nanofibers and mechanical performances. The influence of the solvent (acidic potential and composition) utilized to process biomaterials is also examined. Acid formic/water 50/50
