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

Developing molecular approaches to the creation of robust and water-resistant adhesive materials promotes a fundamental understanding of interfacial adhesion mechanisms as well as future applications of biomedical adhesive materials. Here, we present a simple and robust strategy that combines natural thioctic acid and mussel-inspired iron-catechol complexes to enable ultra-strong adhesive materials that can be used underwater and simultaneously exhibit unprecedentedly high adhesion strength on diverse surfaces. Our experimental results show that the robust crosslinking interaction of the iron-catechol complexes, as well as high-density hydrogen bonding, are responsible for the ultra-high interfacial adhesion strength. The embedding effect of the hydrophobic solvent-free network of poly(disulfides) further enhances the water-resistance. The dynamic covalent poly(disulfides) network also makes the resulting materials reconfigurable, thus enabling reusability via repeated heating and cooling. This molecule-engineering strategy offers a general and versatile solution to the design and construction of dynamic supramolecular adhesive materials.
