Lignin-Based Hydrogels for the Delivery of Bioactive Chaga Mushroom Extract.
Article in Polymers, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Lignin-poly(ethylene)glycol diglycidyl ether hydrogels were synthesized from lignin fractions readily extracted during the hot-water treatment of angiosperms: hardwoods, sugar maple and energy-crop willow, monocotyledons, grasses, miscanthus and agriculture residues, and wheat straw. These lignins represent a broad range of chemical structures and properties as a comparative analysis of their suitability to produce the hydrogels as a novel carrier of chaga-silver nanoparticles. The formation of hydrogels was assessed via attenuated total reflectance Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy. Then, the hydrogels were observed via scanning electron microscopy and evaluated for their free-absorbency capacity and moduli of compression. Furthermore, a hydrogel produced from kraft lignin and two commercial hydrogels was evaluated to benchmark the effectiveness of our hydrogels. Chaga extracts were prepared via the hot-water extraction of chaga mushroom, a method selected for its relatively higher yields and preserved antioxidizing activities. Hydrogels synthesized with lignins of monocotyledons, wheat straw, and miscanthus were found to be suitable carriers for chaga-silver nanoparticles due to their favorable absorption and release behaviors.
