Effects on the Enthalpy of Microsynthesis Calorimetry of the Graft Copolymer Starch-g-Polycaprolactone for Five Starch Sources.

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
The aim of this work was to carry out a microsynthesis of a graft copolymer from different starch sources with polycaprolactone (PCL) and to evaluate its effects on enthalpy during synthesis via differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The copolymer was characterized via FTIR and pasting profile techniques. FTIR studies revealed that starch-PCL graft copolymerization was carried out on all starch sources. The pasting profile revealed that the copolymer presented low viscosity values (heating and cooling stages), compared with those of native starches. This finding indicates that copolymerization took place on the surface of the starch granules. Cassava starch presented the highest enthalpy values at synthesis temperatures of 150 °C and 160 °C.
