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

Polylysine is a biocompatible, biodegradable, water soluble polypeptide. Thanks to the pendant primary amines it bears, it is susceptible to modification reactions. In this work Poly(L-lysine) (PLL) was partially modified via the effortless free-catalysed aza-Michael addition reaction at room temperature by grafting N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAm) moieties onto the amines. The resulting PLL-g-NIPAm exhibited LCST-type thermosensitivity. The LCST can be tuned by the NIPAm content incorporated in the macromolecules. Importantly, depending on the NIPAm content, LCST is highly dependent on pH and ionic strength due to ionization capability of the remaining free lysine residues. PLL-g-NIPAm constitutes a novel biodegradable LCST polymer that could be used as "smart" block in block copolymers and/or terpolymers, of any macromolecular architecture, to design pH/Temperature-responsive self-assemblies (nanocarriers and/or networks) for potential bio-applications.
