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

The organization of hyaluronic acid (HA) solutions was investigated by small angle neutron scattering (SANS). It was demonstrated that HA formed clusters greater than several hundred nanometers. The SANS response revealed a weak correlation peak, corresponding to ordering over a distance scale of about 80 nm. At higher wave vectors, the SANS response indicated the presence of rod-like structures. Addition of calcium ions only weakly affects the structure of the HA solution, but significantly reduces its osmotic pressure. The osmotic component of the SANS response is in good agreement with the intensity obtained from direct osmotic pressure measurements. The results are consistent with the rigid structure of the HA molecule. Graphical abstract:
