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

Ion-induced volume phase transitions in polyelectrolyte gels play an important role in physiological processes such as mucus storage and secretion in the gut, nerve excitation, and DNA packaging. Experiments have shown that changes in ionic composition can trigger rapid swelling and deswelling of these gels. Based on a previously developed computational model, we carry out 2D simulations of gel deswelling within an ionic bath. The dynamics of the volume phase transition are governed by the balance of chemical and mechanical forces on components of the gel. Our simulation results highlight the close connections between the patterns of deswelling, the ionic composition, and the relative magnitude of particle-particle interaction energies.
