Antimicrobial Activities of Chitosan Derivatives.
Article in Pharmaceutics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Considering the challenge created by the development of bacterial and fungal strains resistant to multiple therapeutic variants, new molecules and materials with specific properties against these microorganisms can be synthesized, like those synthesized from biopolymers such as chitosan with improved antimicrobial activities. Antimicrobial activities of seven obtained materials were tested on four reference strains belonging to American Type Culture Collection. The best antimicrobial activity was obtained by functionalization by impregnation of chitosan with quaternary ammonium salts, followed by that obtained by functionalization of chitosan with phosphonium. The lowest antibacterial and antifungal effects were expressed by Ch-THIO and Ch-MBT, but new materials obtained with these extractants may be precursors with a significant role in the direct control of active molecules, such as cell growth factors or cell signaling molecules.
