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

Carrageenans are versatile sulfated marine galactans that possess attractive modification-dependent bulk properties, making them prime candidates for various cosmetic, drug delivery, and food-related applications. The structural diversity and intrinsic complexity of carrageenans hamper access to homogeneous polysaccharides, limiting the development of many carrageenan-based applications. We devised a synthetic strategy for the acquisition of a panel of γ-carrageenan-derived oligosaccharides with varying sulfation profiles and chain length. To that end, we synthesized a set of specialized building blocks with an elaborate multilevel protecting group hierarchy, tailor-made to specifically accommodate the structural complexity of carrageenans. In doing so, we uncovered interdependent protecting group and reactivity constraints, which we resolved strategically to adapt the synthetic route across the panel of carrageenans and minimize trade-offs. Assembly of di-, tri-, and tetrasaccharides with precise control over monomer connectivity and regiodefined sulfation on a conjugation-ready linker showcased the first total synthesis of homogeneous carrageenan oligogalactans. We demonstrated that the application of the curated panel enabled elucidation of the effect of γ-carrageenan molecular features on IL-8 binding preferences via electrochemical sensing and surface analyses.
