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

Hydrogels are composed of a three-dimensional network of cross-linked hydrophilic polymer chains and large amounts of water. The physicochemical properties of the polymer-water interface in hydrogels draw our attention. Due to the complex structure of hydrogel systems, it is still a challenge to investigate the interfacial layer properties of hydrogels through experiments. In this work, we investigate the properties of the covalently bonded chitosan-based ice-hydrogels interfacial layer by dielectric relaxation spectroscopy (DRS) techniques in the presence of avoided electrode polarization. The DRS data exhibit that the polymer-water interfacial layer has a strong dielectric signal response, which indicates that a large number of polar electric dipoles or polar molecules may be contained in the interfacial layer. The variable temperature dielectric relaxation behavior of a series of chitosan-base ice-hydrogels showed that the value of dielectric activation energy for different water contents is about 180 kJ/mol, which is much larger than that of the polymer and ice phases, suggesting a strong coupling of polar electric dipoles within the interfacial layer. This work demonstrates the important role of the polymer-water interface in covalently bonded hydrogels, which will provide assistance in the design and application of covalently bonded hydrogels.
