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

In dynamic materials, the reversible condensation between boronic acids and diols provides adaptability, self-healing ability, and responsiveness to small molecules and pH. The thermodynamics and kinetics of bond exchange determine the mechanical properties of dynamic polymer networks. Here, we investigate the effects of diol structure and salt additives on the rate of boronic acid-diol bond exchange, binding affinity, and the mechanical properties of the corresponding polymer networks. We find that proximal amides used to conjugate diols to polymers and buffering anions induce significant rate acceleration, consistent with an internal and external catalysis, respectively. This rate acceleration is reflected in the stress relaxation of the gels. These findings contribute to the fundamental understanding of the boronic ester dynamic bond and offer molecular strategies to tune the macromolecular properties of dynamic materials.
