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

Zwitterionic polymers, ampholytic macromolecules containing ionic moieties of opposite sign on the same pendant groups, exhibit strong protein-repulsive properties and an inherent biological inertness. For that reason, these highly hydrated inner salt macromolecules have emerged as some of the most viable alternatives to poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), a gold standard in enabling stealth behavior in life science applications. However, the structural diversity of polymer zwitterions remains limited, and currently available macromolecules do not possess an intrinsic ability to undergo hydrolytical degradation, an important prerequisite for use in drug delivery applications. The present paper reports on the synthesis of a zwitterionic polymer, a multimerized form (two thousand copies), of a biologically benign buffering agent, HEPES, which is covalently assembled on a polyphosphazene backbone. The polymer exhibits typical polyzwitterionic solution behavior, an environmentally dependent hydrolytic degradation pattern, and excellent
