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

Catalase is a pivotal antioxidant enzyme that decomposes hydrogen peroxide and reduces oxidative stress. However, its low thermal and operational stability limits applications in challenging environments, particularly those contaminated with emerging pollutants such as polystyrene-based microplastics (PS-MPs). In this study, cryogels composed of Poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-co-allyl glycidyl ether) [Poly(HEMA-co-AGE)] were synthesized and evaluated as immobilization matrices to enhance catalase stability. Cryogels containing varying AGE concentrations were characterized using FT-IR, SEM, TEM, TGA, and BET analyses. The formulation with 250 µL AGE exhibited optimal physicochemical properties, including improved water retention, increased surface area, and high immobilization capacity (356.3 mg·g
