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

To address the limited selectivity of conventional membrane materials toward sulfonamide antibiotics, this study employed a DFT calculation approach to optimize the design of a molecularly imprinted system for sulfadiazine (SDZ). A hierarchical set of template molecules-aniline (ANL), sulfanilamide (SNM), and SDZ-was introduced to systematically elucidate structure-dependent template-monomer matching mechanisms in sulfonamide imprinting systems. Through rational screening, trifluoroethyl methacrylate (TFEMAA) was identified as the optimal functional monomer, with an optimal imprinting molar ratio of 1:4 (SDZ to TFEMAA). Guided by the simulation results, SDZ molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) were synthesized via precipitation polymerization and systematically characterized for their morphology and recognition properties. The MIPs exhibited a well-defined spherical morphology with abundant imprinted cavities, achieving adsorption equilibrium within 1.5 h. The adsorption kinetics followed a pseudo-second-order model, indicating a chemisorption-dominated process. Scatchard analysis revealed the presence of both high- and low-affinity binding sites in the MIPs. Selectivity experiments, quantified by distribution coefficients (K
