Architecting bioinspired nanocrystalline domains for ultimate robust and transparent cellulose photonic hydrogels.
Article in Science advances, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Biomimetic spider silk achieves remarkable functionalities through hierarchical architectures with highly oriented crystalline domains, offering potential across multiple disciplines. However, achieving uniform alignment and spatial control of nanocrystalline domains remains a critical challenge, limiting the realization of structure-derived optical and mechanical functionalities in bioinspired systems. Here, we develop an ultrastrong, transparent photonic hydrogel composed of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), wherein a programmable five-stage stretching-pause process enables precise alignment of CNC domains without sacrificing their intrinsic chirality-unattainable in conventional flexible polymers. This strategy facilitates uniform nanocrystal reorientation (orientation factor = 0.91) and transforms the porous network into aligned nanofibril bundles, yielding optical transparency (>90%) with anisotropic polarization responses, superior mechanical strength (61.6 MPa), toughness (251.8 MJ·m
