Recent Advances in Poly(vinyl alcohol)-Based Hydrogels.
Review in Polymers, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 37 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
Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) is a versatile synthetic polymer, used for the design of hydrogels, porous membranes and films. Its solubility in water, film- and hydrogel-forming capabilities, non-toxicity, crystallinity and excellent mechanical properties, chemical inertness and stability towards biological fluids, superior oxygen and gas barrier properties, good printability and availability (relatively low production cost) are the main aspects that make PVA suitable for a variety of applications, from biomedical and pharmaceutical uses to sensing devices, packaging materials or wastewater treatment. However, pure PVA materials present low stability in water, limited flexibility and poor biocompatibility and biodegradability, which restrict its use alone in various applications. PVA mixed with other synthetic polymers or biomolecules (polysaccharides, proteins, peptides, amino acids etc.), as well as with inorganic/organic compounds, generates a wide variety of materials in which PVA's shortcomings are considerably improved, and new functionalities are obtained. Also, PVA's chemical transformation brings new features and opens the door for new and unexpected uses. The present review is focused on recent advances in PVA-based hydrogels.
