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

Hydrogels have attracted much attention especially due to their biocompatibility and their potential for stimulus responsiveness. By combining hydrogels with aptamers, biological recognition and responsiveness can be added to hydrogels, thereby opening path to advanced applications in biosensing and biomedicine. Within this chapter aptamers will be introduced and their contributions to biological responsiveness of hydrogels will be described. Especially the aptamer-based mechanisms that result in biological responsiveness will be explained and examples for the application of these mechanisms will be given ranging from rather simple sensing approaches to advanced materials for tissue engineering and drug delivery. Since aptamers are not only highly specific bioreceptors, but represent switchable structures that can be easily manipulated using well-known DNA techniques, the combination of aptamers and hydrogels facilitates the rational design of well-programmable and target-responsive smart hydrogels.
