Resins for Frontal Photopolymerization: Combining Depth-Cure and Tunable Mechanical Properties.

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
Photopolymerization has undergone significant development in recent years. It enables fast and easy processing of materials with customized properties and allows precise printing of complex surface geometries. Nevertheless, photopolymerization is mainly applied to cure thin films since the low curing depth limits the fast production of large volumes. Frontal photopolymerization (FPP) is suitable to overcome these limitations so that curing of centimeter-thick (meth)acrylic layers can be accomplished within minutes by light induction only. Prerequisites, however, are the low optical density of the resin and bleaching ability of the photoinitiator. To date, tailored FPP-resins are not commercially available. This study discusses the potential of long-chain polyether dimethacrylates, offering high-temperature resistance and low optical density, as crosslinkers in photobleaching resins and investigates the mechanical properties of photofrontally-cured copolymers. Characteristics ranging from ductile to hard and brittle are observed in tensile tests, demonstrating that deep curing and versatile material properties are achieved with FPP. Analyzed components display uniform polymerization over a depth of four centimeters in Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and swelling tests.
