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 global crisis concerning multidrug-resistant microorganisms necessitates the development of innovative antimicrobial strategies that avoid conventional antibiotics and overcome the toxicity and environmental persistence associated with traditional metal-based biocides. This work aims to develop safe and sustainable antibacterial filtration materials by integrating cationic hyperbranched polymer dendrimers (HBP) into electrospun nanofibers. Cationic HBPs were successfully embedded into recycled polyamide 6 nanofibers using industrial needleless electrospinning. Filtration efficiency, assessed against a 0.3 µm paraffin oil aerosol according to EN 149:2001, consistently exceeded 99.8%, meeting and surpassing the FFP3 classification threshold while maintaining low air resistance. The HBP-functionalized nanofibers exhibited pronounced contact-active antibacterial activity against
