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

Polyurea-cross-linked alginate (X-Ca-alg-IP) aerogels, prepared from calcium alginate (Ca-alg) gels and the isocyanurate trimer of rigid aliphatic isophorone diisocyanate (IP), provide insight into the role of the cross-linker molecular structure in the nanoscale and macroscopic properties of X-biopolymer aerogels. Keeping all other synthetic conditions the same, the polyurea (PUA) loading in X-Ca-alg-IP (40-46% w/w) was lower than what was obtained using flexible aliphatic (56% w/w) or rigid aromatic (60% w/w) triisocyanate monomers, reflecting differences in monomer reactivity and packing efficiency of the resulting PUA. Cross-linking preserved the macro/mesoporous nanoscale architecture of the native Ca-alg backbone, maintaining high porosity (up to 95% v/v) and specific surface area (up to 393 m
