Synthetic Star Nanoengineered Antimicrobial Polymers as Antibiofilm Agents: Bacterial Membrane Disruption and Cell Aggregation.
Article in Biomacromolecules, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
Antimicrobial resistance has become a worldwide issue, with multiresistant bacterial strains emerging at an alarming rate. Multivalent antimicrobial polymer architectures such as bottle brush or star polymers have shown great potential, as they could lead to enhanced binding and interaction with the bacterial cell membrane. In this study, a library of amphiphilic star copolymers and their linear copolymer equivalents, based on acrylamide monomers, were synthesized via RAFT polymerization. Their monomer distribution and molecular weight were varied. Subsequently, their antimicrobial activity toward a Gram-negative bacterium (
