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

Physical cryogels were obtained using the successive freeze-thaw technique of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/poly(ethylene brassylate-co-squaric acid) (PEBSA) solutions. The cryogel systems were prepared by using two different molecular weights of PVA and PEBSA with three different ratios between the ethylene brassylate (EB) and squaric acid (SA) comonomers. The presence of interactions, the thermal properties and the morphology were investigated using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermogravimetry (TGA and DTG) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. The influence of the composition on the degree of swelling in a physiological environment was demonstrated. The study highlighted improvements in terms of new network flexibility due to the intermolecular chains interactions brought by the introduction of PEBSA in the cryogel structure. We also concluded that the presence of PEBSA in the PVA/PEBSA cryogel network improved the loading capacity of the new system with specific hydrophobic agents, for example essential oils, which (due to their antimicrobial character) can lead to the use of new systems obtained for various applications.
