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

Macroporous polymer monoliths prepared from high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) can be found in various biomedical applications. While typically water-in-oil HIPEs are applied for polyHIPE preparation, they are not suitable for hydrophilic polyHIPE preparation. Herein, direct oil-in-water emulsions based on water-soluble poly(ethylene glycol)diacrylate or poly(ethylene glycol)dimethacrylate were developed. Furthermore, the incorporation of a hydrophilic water-miscible thiol, ethoxylated trimethylolpropane tris(3-mercaptopropionate) (ETTMP) was reported for the first time within thiol-ene polyHIPEs. Due to the transparency of the emulsions, rapid curing via photopolymerization was feasible. The average pore diameters of the resulting polyHIPEs ranged between 1.2 and 3.6 μm, and porosity of up to 90% was achieved. The water uptake of the materials reached up to 1000% by weight. Drug loading and release were demonstrated, employing salicylic acid as a model drug. Porous profile and biodegradability add to the usefulness of the material for biomedical applications.
