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 escalating public health security crisis caused by pathogenic microorganisms and the worsening antibiotic resistance urgently demand the development of antimicrobial materials with high efficiency and safety. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) exhibit significant potential in photocatalytic antibacterial applications, but face challenges such as insufficient biosafety and difficulties in application translation. In this work, we first report two metformin-based photoactive cationic MCOFs engineered for synergistic functionality and safety. They exhibit broad-spectrum light absorption, efficient charge separation, and generate multiple ROS via Type I/II photodynamic, achieving >99 % inactivation of bacteria/viruses. Excellent biocompatibility with LD
