Electrospun Cellulose Acetate Nanofibers for Healthcare Products: Towards Sensing Pads for Endometriosis.
Article in Polymers, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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 need for reliable preventive medicine tools is growing, especially for diseases with long diagnostic delays, such as endometriosis, which can take several years to diagnose. In this context, cellulose acetate nanofibrous membranes were prepared via electrospinning, to create the absorbent core of a smart wearable in the form of a sanitary pad, intended to support electronic diagnostic devices. A multi-layered structure was opted for, with each layer acting in a specific way according to its position within the pad, regarding mainly absorbency and porosity. The membranes were ultralight and highly absorbent, with single membranes showing an absorbency of 20-70 times their initial weight, and multi-layered membranes 15-30 times. Morphological evaluation of the pad was used as the basis for the optimization of the fabrication parameters, while liquid absorption capacity confirmed the pad's high absorbency. Additionally, chemical and toxicological assessments indicated in vitro biocompatibility of the pad. The potential of the electrospinning process in the fabrication of menstrual hygiene pads is shown by these results. Future studies should focus on the integration of smart devices within the pad, as well as their functionality and effectiveness.
