The first space-filling polyhedrons of polymer cubic cells originated from Weaire-Phelan structure created by polymerization induced phase separation.
Article in Scientific reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
The Weaire-Phelan structure is a three-dimensional structure composed of two different polyhedra having the same volume, i.e., pyritohedron and truncated hexagonal trapezohedron. It was proposed by Weaire and Phelan in 1993 as a solution of the Kelvin problem of filling space with no gaps with cells of minimum surface area and equal volume. It was found in physical systems including liquid foam and a metal alloy while it has never been constructed as organic materials. We report herewith the first polymeric Weaire-Phelan structure constructed through phase-separation of a single polymer species that is synthesized by simple polyaddition between tetrakis(3-mercaptopropionate) and 1,6-diisocyanatohexane. The structure has the order of micrometers and is amorphous unlike reported crystal structures similar to the Weaire-Phelan structure.
