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

Effective antibacterial and antiviral coatings are expected to serve as effective infection control measures in medical and public environments. In this study, we investigated polyethylenimine functionalized with triethoxysilyl groups (Si-PEI) as a promising platform material to implement such coatings feasibly. Si-PEI, synthesized in ethanol in a one-pot reaction, was coated onto the material surface as a diluted solution and then spontaneously cross-linked after solvent evaporation at room temperature. The resulting water-resistant coating layer retained water-soluble antimicrobial components such as copper-(II) ions and sulfonamide antibiotics within the cross-linked network, thereby moderately suppressing their leaching due to casual water exposure. Similar retention was also implemented for the antiviral agent didecyldimethylammonium chloride, and the coating layer demonstrated effective and stable suppression of viral infectivity of deposited droplets under realistic conditions.
