Toward Sustainable Polyurethane Alternatives: A Review of the Synthesis, Applications, and Lifecycle of Non-Isocyanate Polyurethanes (NIPUs).
Review in Polymers, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
In recent decades, scientific interest has increasingly focused on sustainable and green polymers. Within this context, considerable efforts have been devoted to the synthesis and exploration of eco-friendly non-isocyanate polyurethanes (NIPUs) as alternatives to conventional polyurethanes (PUs), solving the problem of isocyanate toxicity and other environmental problems that existed. This review article highlights the synthetic pathways of NIPUs and identifies the potential hazards associated with their production and end-of-life (EoL) stages. While in the literature there are several reviews regarding the synthesis of NIPUs, the current work distinguishes itself by providing a comprehensive summary of the latest research on NIPUs, with a particular focus on their lifecycle management, recyclability, and the challenges that hinder their scalability for industrial-level production. Advances in NIPU synthesis have made them strong candidates for a diverse range of applications. This review underscores the most notable examples of these advancements, emphasizing their potential to drive sustainable polymer development.
