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

Composite hydrogels with improved mechanical and chemical properties can be formed by non-covalently decorating the nanofibrillar structures formed by the self-assembly of peptides with fucoidan. Nevertheless, the precise interactions, and the electrochemical and thermodynamic stability of these composite materials have not been determined. Here, we present a thermodynamic analysis of the interacting forces that drive the formation of a composite fucoidan/9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl-phenylalanine-arginine-glycine-aspartic acid-phenylalanine (Fmoc-FRGDF) hydrogel. The results showed that the co-assembly of fucoidan and Fmoc-FRGDF was spontaneous and exothermic. The melting point increased from 87.0 °C to 107.7 °C for Fmoc-FRGDF with 8 mg/mL of added fucoidan. A complex network of hydrogen bonds formed between the molecules of Fmoc-FRGDF, and electrostatic, hydrogen bond, and van der Waals interactions were the main interactions driving the co-assembly of fucoidan and Fmoc-FRGDF. Furthermore, the sulfate group of fucoidan formed a strong salt bridge with the arginine of Fmoc-FRGDF. This study provides useful biomedical engineering design parameters for the inclusion of other highly soluble biopolymers into these types of hydrogel vectors.
