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

For the past two decades, petroleum-based polymers have dominated the long-wear makeup segment of the cosmetic industry. Film-forming agents, such as acrylic polymers, are highly valued for their versatility and their ability to create sebum-insensitive, elastic, and resilient films on the skin and thus remain widely used. However, current research is increasingly focused on identifying more eco-friendly and biodegradable alternatives. In this context, it is essential to analyze the properties of acrylic polymer films to elucidate the key characteristics that make these systems efficient in real-world applications. Here, macroscopic properties, such as tensile strength and tack, intrinsic parameters including glass transition temperature and particle size, as well as nanoscale structural, mechanical, and viscoelastic characteristics assessed using Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), are examined. This comprehensive analysis defines the requirements that future biodegradable alternatives must fulfill to replicate, or even surpass, the
