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 good combination of high strength and high toughness is a long-standing challenge in the design of robust biomaterials. Meanwhile, robust biomaterials hardly perform fast and significant mechanical property changes under the trigger of light at room temperature. These limit the application of biomaterials in some specific areas. Here, photoresponsive alginate fibers are fabricated by using the designed azobenzene-containing surfactant as flexible contact point for cross-linking polysaccharide chains of alginate, which gain high mechanics through reinforced plastic strain and photo-modulating mechanics through isomerization of azobenzene. By transferring molecular motion into macro-scale mechanical property changes, such alginate fibers achieve reversible photo-modulations on the mechanics. Their breaking strength and toughness can be photo-modulated from 732 MPa and 112 MJ m
