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

Inorganic polyphosphates (polyP) are long-chain polymers of orthophosphate residues, which, depending on the external conditions, can be present both physiologically and synthetically in either soluble, nanoparticulate or coacervate form. In recent years, these polymers have received increasing attention due to their unprecedented ability to exhibit both morphogenetic and metabolic energy delivering properties. There are no other physiological molecules that contain as many metabolically utilizable, high-energy bonds as polyP, making these polymers of particular medical interest as components of advanced hydrogel scaffold materials for potential applications in ATP-dependent tissue regeneration and repair. However, these polymers show physiological activity only in soluble form and in the coacervate phase, but not as stable metal-polyP nanoparticles. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms of formation of polyP coacervates and nanoparticles as well as their transformations is important for the design of novel materials for tissue implants, wound healing, and drug delivery and is discussed here.
