Investigation of Multifunctionality of Electrospun Poly(vinyl alcohol) Nanofiber Membranes Incorporating Boric Acid and Nanoencapsulated Curcumin: Filtration Performance, Antibacterial Activity, and Environmental Impact.
Article in ACS omega, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Nanofibrous structures have a wide range of applications, including air filtration for fine particles. This study fabricated bead-free nanofiber membranes from aqueous poly-(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and PVA/boric acid (BA) solutions containing varying concentrations of nanoencapsulated curcumin (CUR) using the electrospinning method to investigate filtration performance against aerosols and bioaerosols, antibacterial activity, mechanical properties, and biodegradability. The prepared membranes were morphologically examined using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). In addition, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to investigate the incorporation of CUR into the fibers. The higher CUR content resulted in thicker fibers and significantly improved the mechanical properties of the samples. The filtration performance of the bead-free samples was evaluated for different particle sizes (0.3-3 μm) at airflow rates of 28.3 and 32 L min
