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 versatility of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as a dispersing and adhesive agent lies in its amphiphilicity and hydrogen bonding capability. In this study, silicon wafers (SiO2) were silanized with N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (AEAPTES), (N,N-dimethylamino)trimethylsilane (TMS), and n-octyldimethylchlorosilane (C8) to construct four substrates with varying fractions of hydrogen bonding sites and hydrophobic groups. PVP thin films were fabricated on the substrates using both static adsorption and spin coating methods. PVP spontaneously adsorbs to and results in 1 nm-thick films on all the substrates, demonstrating the polymer's capability as a universal adhesive. The continuity of the dried PVP films at the nanoscopic and micron scales was imaged using atomic force and optical microscopy, respectively. The film stability was correlated to the fraction of substrate hydrogen bonding sites. The films are stable on SiO2 with 100% hydrogen bonding sites, unstable on TMS with 100% hydrophobic groups, and metastable on AEAPTES and C8 with a mixture of hydrogen bonding sites and hydrophobic groups.
