Electrospinning of Ethylene Vinyl Acetate/Carbon Nanotube Nanocomposite Fibers.
Article in Polymers, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Nanocomposites, based on an ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymer with a vinyl acetate content of 34 wt % and varying amounts of multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), were prepared by an electrospinning method. The dispersibility of the MWCNTs in the solution was improved by using cholesteryl 1-pyrenecarboxylate (PyChol) as a compatibilizer. The transmission electron microscopy images showed that the MWCNTs were aligned inside of the elastomeric matrix by the electrospinning process. The morphologies of the fibers were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy. When the amount of MWCNTs in the polymer solution reached 3 wt %, fibers with a diameter of 846 ± 447 nm were prepared. The chemical composition of the prepared fibers was investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). FTIR results confirmed the presence of a carboxyl group, originating from the presence of PyChol. XPS results showed that the EVA fibers produced by electrospinning were oxidized in ethylene units, when comparing the spectra of the original EVA granules, but the presence of MWCNTs enhanced the stability of the EVA. The thermal stabilities of the fibers were tested with thermogravimetric analysis. The results confirmed that the presence of MWCNTs inside the fibers enhanced the thermal stabilities of the prepared nanocomposites.
