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

Shape-changing objects are prized for applications ranging from acoustics to robotics. We report sub-millimetre bubbles that reversibly and rapidly change not only their shape but also their topological class, from sphere to torus, when subjected to a simple pressure treatment. Stabilized by a solid-like film of nanoscopic protein "particles", the bubbles may persist in toroidal form for several days, most of them with the relative dimensions expected of Clifford tori. The ability to cross topological classes reversibly and quickly is enabled by the expulsion of protein from the strained surfaces in the form of submicron assemblies. Compared to structural modifications of liquid-filled vesicles, for example by slow changes in solution osmolality, the rapid inducement of shape changes in bubbles by application of pressure may hasten experimental investigations of surface mechanics, even as it suggests new routes to lightweight materials with high surface areas.
