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

Polymer-dispersed liquid crystals (PDLCs) are composite materials, in which LCs are dispersed in the form of microdroplets in a polymer matrix. As a composite material, its electro-optical properties are affected by many factors such as molecular structure, composition, and the microstructure of the LCs and polymers. In this work, PDLC films were prepared based on the thiol-ene click reaction, and effects of refractive indexes of polymers and LCs on their electro-optical properties were studied. The refractive indexes of the polymer matrix are adjusted by controlling the content of sulfur element, and those of the LCs are adjusted by adding multi-fluorinated LCs with high refractive index. By regulating the refractive indexes of the polymer matrix and LCs, the maximum transmittance of the film is raised and the viewing angle of the film is also extended. This work could afford some ideas for the directional regulation of the viewing angles and the electro-optical properties of the PDLC film.
