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

The excessive utilization of antibiotics escalates the susceptibility to bacterial infections in the general populace. The misuse of antibiotics and the emergence of bacterial resistance can be effectively regulated through the implementation of bacterial detection technology. Therefore, the construction of a multifunctional platform for bacterial detection and removal holds immense significance. In this research, we have effectively developed an imidazolium ionic liquid (TPE-IL) based on the tetraphenylethylene (TPE) structure with aggregation-induced emission (AIE), enabling effective bacterial imaging, biofilm inhibition, and mixed bacterial infection wound healing. TPE-IL effectively targets and penetrates bacterial surfaces via the electrostatic interactions of its imidazole groups and the hydrophobic interactions of its alkyl chains. This dual-action mechanism not only enhances fluorescence emission from the bacterial surface, enabling precise bacterial imaging, but also exhibits significant bactericidal activity. TPE-IL revealed superior antibacterial activity against both
