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

In this study, two monomers, dipentaerythritol pentaacrylate and 2-hydroxy-3-phenoxypropyl acrylate, were used to synthesize antimicrobial vitrimers with and without a transesterification catalyst and investigate their properties. The addition of the comonomer 2-hydroxy-3-phenoxypropyl acrylate to the photocurable resin reduced its viscosity and shrinkage but increased the gel point and reduced the brittleness and increased flexibility of the resulting polymers. All vitrimers exhibited self-welding and reprocessability properties and thermoresponsive shape memory, maintaining two permanent shapes. All vitrimers showed high antimicrobial activity against widely spread bacteria and fungal strains, including medically important ones. The resin, composed of dipentaerythritol pentaacrylate (1 mol) and 2-hydroxy-3-phenoxypropyl acrylate (10 mol), was applied to LCD 3D printing technology, and the Y-shaped connector was printed. In addition, the antimicrobial activity makes these vitrimers particularly important for use in areas with high microbial concentrations, such as medical facilities.
