Chemically recyclable polythioesters prepared by ring-opening polymerization of dithiolactone and monothiodilactone monomers.
Review in Fundamental research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Developing polymers that can be chemically recycled signifies a considerable prospect to polymer scientists to tackle the increasing plastic crises but is still plagued with certain limitations in architecture/performance diversity and depolymerization activity. Polythioesters synthesized through ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of cyclic thioesters monomers are captivating materials owing to the labile thioester bonds in polymer chains and the low ring strain energy of thiolactone monomers. In this brief review, the latest advancements in the ring-opening polymerization of dithiolactone and monothiodilactone monomers to prepare chemically recycled polythioesters are summarized. Moreover, the feasibility and challenges in future practical applications of chemically recyclable polythioesters derived from dithiolactone and monothiodilactone will be discussed.
