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

Cellulose derivatives have attracted attention as environmentally friendly materials that can exhibit a cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) phase with visible light reflection. Previous reports have shown that the chemical structures and the degrees of substitution of cellulose derivatives have significant influence on their reflection properties. Although many studies have been reported on CLC using ethyl cellulose (EC) derivatives in which the hydroxy groups are esterified, there have been no studies on EC derivatives with etherified side chains. In this article, we optimized the Williamson ether synthesis to introduce pentyl ether groups in the EC side chain. The degree of substitution with pentyl ether group (
