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 rich structures and hierarchical organizations in nature provide many sources of inspiration for advanced material designs. We wish to recapitulate properties such as high mechanical strength, colour-changing ability, autonomous healing and antimicrobial efficacy in next-generation synthetic materials. Common in nature are non-covalent interactions such as hydrogen bonding, ionic interactions and hydrophobic effects, which are all useful motifs in tailor-made materials. Among these are biobased components, which are ubiquitously conceptualized in the space of recently developed bioinspired and biomimetic materials. In this regard, sustainable organic polymer chemistry enables us to tune the properties and functions of such materials that are essential for daily life. In this Review, we discuss recent progress in bioinspired and biomimetic polymers and provide insights into biobased materials through the evolution of chemical approaches, including networking/crosslinking, dynamic interactions and self-assembly. We focus on advances in biobased materials; namely polymeric mimics of resilin and spider silk, mechanically and optically adaptive materials, self-healing elastomers and hydrogels, and antimicrobial polymers.
