Bioinspired super-hydrophilic zwitterionic polymer armor combats thrombosis and infection of vascular catheters.
Article in Bioactive materials, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Thrombosis and infection are two major complications associated with central venous catheters (CVCs), which significantly contribute to morbidity and mortality. Antifouling coating strategies currently represent an efficient approach for addressing such complications. However, existing antifouling coatings have limitations in terms of both duration and effectiveness. Herein, we propose a durable zwitterionic polymer armor for catheters. This armor is realized by pre-coating with a robust phenol-polyamine film inspired by insect sclerotization, followed by grafting of poly-2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (pMPC) via
