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
A synthetic method was developed to prepare biodegradable waterborne polyurethanes (BHPUs) with a high solid content by introducing different molecular weights of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) into poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL)-based polyurethanes. PCL is a semi-crystalline polymer that can be degraded in lipase to prepare biodegradable waterborne polyurethanes. The biodegradability of BHPUs was evaluated, and the results showed that BHPU samples could be degraded in a solution of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS)/lipase but not in PBS. Two different synthesis routes were used to prepare the BHPUs, which resulted in different association relationships between the ionic hydrophilic polymer dimethylol propionic acid (DMPA) and a nonionic hydrophilic polymer (PEG). The influence of the association relationship between DMPA and PEG on the solid content and other BHPU properties was investigated. The results showed that the method of associating all PEG molecules with DMPA increased the crystallization, tensile properties, and water and soil repellency of the BHPU samples. The solid content of the BHPU samples increased from 41% to 52.7%. In addition, PEG with molecular weights of 400 g mol
