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

Exploring opportunities for biowaste valorization, herein, humic substances (HS) were combined with gelatin, a hydrophilic biocompatible and bioavailable polymer, to obtain 3D hydrogels. Hybrid gels (Gel HS) were prepared at different HS contents, exploiting physical or chemical cross-linking, through 1-ethyl-(3-3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide (EDC) chemistry, between HS and gelatin. Physicochemical features were assessed through rheological measurements, X-ray diffraction, attenuated total reflectance (ATR) spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). ATR and NMR spectroscopies suggested the formation of an amide bond between HS and Gel via EDC chemistry. In addition, antioxidant and antimicrobial features toward both Gram(-) and Gram(+) strains were evaluated. HS confers great antioxidant and widespread antibiotic performance to the whole gel. Furthermore, the chemical cross-linking affects the viscoelastic behavior, crystalline structures, water uptake, and functional performance and produces a marked improvement of biocide action.
