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

Statistical copolymers of ethylene oxide (EO) and propylene oxide (PO) are widely used in industry and academia. Despite their decade-long use, the influence of the polymerization conditions on reactivity ratios is underexplored, and surprisingly solution and bulk properties of the resulting polyether copolymers have not been reported in a systematic manner. In this study we examined the copolymerization of EO and PO in a variety of solvents (dimethyl sulfoxide, toluene, anisole) and at different temperatures (25-60 °C), correlating reaction conditions with the thermal and solubility properties of the resulting P-(EO-
