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

Stimuli-responsive hydrogels that provide controlled degradation can be used as bacteria delivery systems for advanced therapeutic applications. Here, we report the first use of photodegradable hydrogels as materials that can direct bacterial movement, tune mean bacteria speed, and control bacteria delivery through spatiotemporal control of degradation. Hydrogels were formed using base-catalyzed Michael addition reactions between photodegradable poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)
