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, a series of polyacrylamide/cellulose nanocrystal (PAM/CNC) composites with a wide range of compositions were prepared by a solution casting method. Subsequently, the influence of the PAM conformation on the behaviour of the PAM/CNC composites was studied. The microstructural, thermal, and mechanical properties of the PAM/CNC composites were also investigated, as well as their flocculation and dispersion behaviour. Thermal degradation of both CNC and PAM in the composites occurred simultaneously, at a much higher temperature than the degradation of the neat CNC. By TEM and SEM, PAM globule aggregates in the PAM/CNC composites were detected. With an increase in the medium acidity, the PAM globule aggregate size of in the composites decreased. Moreover, the composite films cast from high pH solutions (extended PAM conformation) exhibited superior strength properties than those cast from low pH solutions (contracted coil PAM conformation). The PAM globule conformation provided good re-dispersibility of the freeze-dried PAM/CNC composites by preventing aggregation of the CNC particles. The PAM globule adsorption onto the CNC particles caused CNC surface hydrophobization and a decrease in their surface charge, while maintaining high colloidal stability of the CNC suspensions. Furthermore, the CNC particles with adsorbed PAM were demonstrated to be useful as emulsifiers and compatibilisers.
