Dual-action prevention of adherent and non-adherent biofouling
Article in Biomaterials science, 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
Contemporary clinical problems, such as medical device failure due to onset infection and thrombosis, pose a significant threat to the care and treatment of critical patients. While infection is typically treated with broad-spectrum antibiotics, and thrombosis is treated with systemic administration of anticoagulants, these options are less favorable because of the escalation of antibiotic resistance and adverse anticoagulation effects such as excessive bleeding and platelet consumption. Alternative strategies must be considered to address these issues before the current strategies become ineffective and cause irreversible damage. One such strategy is the combination of a bioactive therapeutic, nitric oxide (NO), with a passive anti-fouling technique, slippery nanoemulsion-infused porous surfaces (SNIPS). Loading the NO donor
