Lateral diffusion of single polymer molecules at interfaces between water and oil.

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
Lateral diffusion of polymer molecules at the interfaces between immiscible oil and water is investigated at the single molecular level. The interfaces between water and alkanes are chosen as the model systems and polyethylene oxide (PEO) is the model polymer. Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy is used to measure the interfacial diffusion of fluorescence-labeled PEO with its molecular weight ranging over more than an order of magnitude. It is discovered that the interfacial diffusion coefficient scales with the molecular weight by the exponent of -0.5. Detailed analysis shows that the PEO chain takes an ideal two-dimensional random coil conformation at these fluidic interfaces and the bigger contribution from water's hydrodynamic friction is discovered.
