A Multiply and Long-Chain Branched Polyolefin with Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE)-Like Properties Containing Two Types of Functional Groups.
Article in Angewandte Chemie (International ed. in English), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) is an important material or plastic, which, unfortunately, is synthesized under very harsh conditions and challenging to recycle. We report here on a highly flexible catalytic synthesis of multiply branched and long-chain branched polyolefins under mild conditions. We combine coordinative chain transfer polymerization of ethylene and branched alpha-olefins with ring-opening metathesis polymerization and hydrogenation catalysis. Our plastic contains two types of functional groups: olefins and esters. The olefin functional groups can be used to enable closed-loop recycling, and the ester groups permit faster decomposition than LDPE to potentially reduce the micro-plastic formation or enable a second depolymerization pathway. Our material matches key properties of LDPE, such as the melting point, rheology and stress-strain behavior.
