Contact-Killing Antibacterial Polystyrene Polymerized Using a Quaternized Cationic Initiator.
Article in ACS omega, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Contact-killing antibacterial materials are attracting attention owing to their ability for sustained antibacterial activity. However, contact-killing antibacterial polystyrene (PS) has not been extensively studied because its chemically stable structure impedes chemical modification. In this study, we developed an antibacterial PS sheet with a contact-killing surface using PS synthesized from 2,2'-azobis-[2-(1,3-dimethyl-4,5-dihydro-1
