Novel antimicrobial bioplastic based on PLA-chitosan by addition of TiO
Article in Journal of environmental health science & engineering, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
purposeThe purpose of this study was to develop antimicrobial bioplastics based on Poly Lactic Acid (PLA) with the addition of chitosan-ZnO, and chitosan-TiO
methodsFor the preparation of the bioplastics, PLA with chitosan-ZnO or chitosan-TiO
resultsPLA-chitosan-ZnO indicated a robust antimicrobial activity against bacteria such as
conclusionIn general, the addition of chitosan-ZnO into in PLA-based bioplastic produces better antimicrobial properties compared to TiO
