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

A series of bottlebrush pressure sensitive adhesives (PSAs) containing progressively greater numbers of large dangling ends were synthesized using ring-opening metathesis polymerization. These defects were engineered into PSAs by promoting the formation of loop defects and by manipulating the kinetic chain length such that large dangling defects are covalently bound to the bulk. The unique structure of these samples is shown to promote adhesion at interfaces by maximizing surface area contact and increasing local van der Waals forces. This design philosophy (termed defect-driven design,
