A Statistical Approach toward Biofilms Hydrophilicity Characterization: Integrating ANOVA, DOE, and PCA for Starch/Glycerol/CMC Films Case Study.
Article in ACS applied bio materials, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
A combined statistical approach significantly improves the reliability of gravimetric assessments of hydrophilicity in starch/glycerol/carboxymethylcellulose biofilms. This study reveals that traditional methods for evaluating hydrophilicity-related properties are limited by inconsistent experimental conditions and inadequate statistical design. By systematically varying film composition within a pseudocomponent domain and applying ANOVA, Mixture Design, and Principal Components Analysis, we demonstrate that composition-related effects far exceed intrinsic method variability. The results underscore the influence of components on hydrophilic behavior, offering robust and predictive models across the experimental domain. This findings-oriented approach provides a rational framework to optimize formulations, ensuring reproducible and meaningful assessments of the hydrophilicity.
