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

Organic room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials have played an important part in several emerging photonic applications, such as flexible electronics, bioimaging, and information anti-counterfeiting encryption, due to their large Stokes shift and long lifetime. However, RTP emission of polymer materials requires restriction of a rigid chemical environment, which greatly limits their applications in the dry state, and they usually have poor stretchability. Polymeric RTP hydrogels offer excellent soft, wet features and tunable mechanical properties, providing an ideal solution to address this challenge. Various preparation strategies have been developed to achieve RTP emission by confining chromophores through polymer conformation rigidification, such as physical doping, chemical grafting, and supramolecular polymerization. This review aims to systematically summarize recent progress in this young (but flourishing) research area. Subsequently, the application fields of polymeric RTP hydrogels are reviewed briefly. The current challenges and future outlooks of this field are discussed to attract new interest and inspire more efforts.
