A facile fabrication method of sericin/chitosan film without additives for fruit coating.

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
Sericin (SS) serves as a natural adhesive, binding silk fibers within the silkworm cocoon and shielding them from environmental stresses. Commonly, SS-based films rely on additives to improve their physical properties. In this study, we developed an additive-free film composed of SS and chitosan (CS) in an ethanol environment, achieving enhanced tensile strength, elongation at break, and water retention and release capacity through structural modification of SS. The physicochemical properties of the film were comprehensively characterized using FTIR, SEM, and contact angle analyses. Additionally, its antioxidant, antibacterial, and hemocompatibility properties were systematically evaluated, demonstrating its potential for diverse biomedical and environmental applications. Results demonstrated that a film with a SS-to-CS ratio of 2 : 1 exhibited strong DPPH and hydrogen peroxide scavenging activities, induced only 2.07% hemolysis, and displayed moderate antibacterial effects against both Gram-negative (
