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

The Horizon Europe Project MACRAMÉ developed twelve recommendations towards Test Guidelines and Standards for safety assessment of advanced materials (AdMas) that capture the identified needs in characterisation and identification, safety testing, transformation and release as well as information flow along the AdMas lifecycle. MACRAMÉ highlights challenges posed by complex structures and transformations of AdMas and AdMas-enabled products for regulation and industry drawn on research on graphene-related materials, carbon nanotubes and poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid in realistic use cases. MACRAMÉ translates advances in characterisation, transformation and release assessment, and New Approach Methodologies into actionable recommendations and calls on regulators, funding bodies, researchers and industry to develop and validate fit-for-purpose test methods, standards and guidance with the aim to enable safe and sustainable deployment of AdMas for societal challenges.
