Keratinous Human Hair as a Precursor for Functionalized Carbon: Influence of Pyrolysis Temperature on Structure and Biomedical Performance.
Review in ACS omega, 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
Carbon is a fundamental element that possesses remarkable engineering versatility due to its unique capacity for diverse solid-state bonding. While carbonaceous matrices hold immense biomedical potential, optimizing their thermal conversion pipelines is mandatory to ensure the complete elimination of raw biological contaminants while preserving material integrity. Among various proteinaceous biomass streams, human hair represents an abundant, globally ubiquitous waste resource that has emerged as a high-potential precursor for engineered functional carbon platforms. Compared to conventional plant-derived or petrochemical alternatives, human hair-derived carbon (HHC) features a unique macromolecular architecture that enables the intrinsic self-doping of biogenic nitrogen (N) and sulfur (S) heteroatoms into the emerging graphitic lattice, yielding an optimal electroactive microenvironment for stem cell manufacturing and tissue engineering. This review comprehensively scrutinizes how thermal processing windows (400 °C-900 °C) systematically transform the raw proteinaceous matrix into a highly crystalline, conductive carbon framework, fundamentally modulating its mechanical modulus, charge-transfer resistance (
