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

Hydrogen-bonded network of water surrounding polymers is expected to be one of the most relevant factors affecting biocompatibility, while the specific hydrogen-bonded structure of water responsible for biocompatibility is still under debate. Here we study the hydrogen-bonded structure of water in a loop-shaped poly(ethylene glycol) chain in a polyrotaxane using synchrotron soft X-ray emission spectroscopy. By changing the density of anchoring molecules, hydrogen-bonded structure of water confined in the poly(ethylene glycol) loop was identified. The XES profile of the confined water indicates the absence of the low energy lone-pair peak, probably because the limited space of the polymer loop entropically inhibits the formation of tetrahedrally coordinated water. The volume of the confined water can be changed by the anchoring density, which implies the ability to control the biocompatibility of loop-shaped polymers.
