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

With combining multi-particle collision dynamics (MPCD) for the solvent and molecular dynamics (MD) for the polymer chains, we have studied the conformation and untying behaviors of a trefoil knot polymer chain translocated through a confined funnel-like channel. For the trefoil knot chain, we found that the untying knot behavior mostly happens during the translocation process, and the translocation behavior of linear chains is also simulated as a comparison. Some characteristics of the trefoil knot chain during translocation process, such as average gyration radius <Rg> and the average end-to-end distances <S> are discussed, and we statistic the scale relations of the translocation time versus the chain length, and that of the chain rigidity. This study may help to understand translocation behaviors of the knotted linear polymer chain in the capillary flow field.
