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

Polyester biomaterials play a crucial in vascular surgery, but suffer from unspecific protein adsorption, thrombogenicity, and inadequate endothelial cell response, which limit their success. To address these issues, we investigated the functionalization of polyester biomaterials with antithrombogenic polysaccharide coatings. A two-step and water-based method was used to coat cationized polycaprolactone with different sulfated polysaccharides (SPS), which resulted in long-term stability, tunable morphology, roughness, film thickness, chemical compositions, zeta potential, and water content. The coatings significantly increased the anticoagulant activity and reduced the thrombogenicity of polycaprolactone, particularly with highly sulfated heparin and cellulose sulfate. Less SPS, such as chondroitin sulfate, fucoidan, and carrageenan, despite showing reduced anticoagulant activity, also exhibited lower fibrinogen adsorption. The adhesion and viability of human primary endothelial cells cultured on modified polycaprolactone correlated with the type and sulfate content of the coatings.
