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

We developed a simple model of the copolymerization process in the formation of crosslinked macromolecular systems. A living copolymerization was carried out for free chains, in bulk and in a slit, as well as for grafted chains in a slit. In addition, polymer 2D brushes were placed in a slit with initiator molecules attached to one of the confining walls. Coarse-grained chains were embedded in the vertices of a face-centered cubic lattice with the excluded volume interactions. The simulations of the copolymerization processes were performed using the Dynamic Lattice Liquid algorithm, a version of the Monte Carlo method. The influence of the initial initiator to cross-linker ratio, slit width and grafting on the polymerization and on the gelation was examined. It was also shown that the influence of a confining slit was rather small, while the grafting of chains affected the location of the gel pint significantly.
