Antifouling Activity of Bottlebrush Network Hydrogels.
Article in ACS applied bio materials, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Mitigating the attachment of microorganisms to polymer biomaterials is critical for preventing hospital-acquired infections. Two chemical strategies to mitigate fouling include fabricating fouling-resistant surfaces, which typically present hydrophilic polymers, such as polyethylene glycol (PEG), or creating fouling-release surfaces, which are generally hydrophobic featuring polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). Despite the demonstrated promise of employing PEG or PDMS, amphiphilic PEG/PDMS copolymer materials remain understudied. Here, for the first time, we investigated if phase-separated amphiphilic copolymers confounded microbial adhesion. We used bottlebrush amphiphilic PEG/PDMS co-networks and homopolymer networks to study bacterial adhesion across a library of gels (ϕ
