The Effect of Temperature on the Mechanical Properties of Alginate Gels in Water/Alcohol Solutions.
Article in Gels (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Alginate organohydrogels prepared in water/alcohol mixtures play an important role in electronic and superconductor applications in low-temperature environments. The study deals with the preparation of Ca-alginate organohydrogels and the analysis of their equilibrium swelling and mechanical properties at sub-zero temperatures. It is shown that the equilibrium degree of swelling at room temperature is noticeably affected by the concentration of co-solvents (methanol, ethanol, and 2-propanol) in the mixtures and the number of carbon atoms in the co-solvent molecules. Mechanical properties are studied in small-amplitude oscillatory tests. The data are fitted with a model that involves three material parameters. The influence of temperature is investigated in temperature-sweep oscillatory tests under a cooling-heating program, where a noticeable difference is observed between the storage and loss moduli under cooling and heating (the hysteresis curves). The hysteresis areas are affected by the cooling/heating rate and the number of carbon atoms in the co-solvents.
