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

A silicone-based elastomer filled with vinyl-silane treated aluminum hydroxide was used to replace conventional polyurethane-based adhesive to provide a flame-retardant adhesive for plywood. The shear strength and fire performance of such a silicone-based (SI) adhesive glued plywood (SI/plywood) were investigated and compared to those of the polyurethane-based (PU) adhesive glued plywood (PU/plywood). The shear strength of the SI/plywood [(0.92 ± 0.09) MPa] was about 63% lower than that of the PU/plywood at room temperature, but it was less sensitive to water (62% reduction for the PU/plywood and 30% reduction for the SI/plywood after hot-water immersion at 63 °C for 3 h). The fire performance of plywood was assessed by a simulated match-flame ignition test (Mydrin test), lateral ignition and flame spread test, cone calorimetry, and thermocouple measurements. With a higher burn-though resistance and thermal barrier efficiency, and lower flame spread and heat release rate, the SI/plywood exhibited a superior fire-resistance and reaction-to-fire performance and improved fire-resistance as compared to the PU/plywood. The SI adhesive generated an inorganic protective layer on the sample surface that visibly suppressed glowing and smoldering of the plywood during combustion. The SI adhesive was also combined and reinforced with cellulosic fabric (CF) or glass fabric (GF) to prepare composite plywood (SI/CF/plywood and SI/GF/plywood) with improved fire performance. The cone calorimetry and thermocouple measurements indicated that the use of CF or GF in SI/CF/plywood and SI/GF/plywood, respectively, suppressed the delamination and cracking of the composite plywood and promoted the formation of an effective thermal barrier during smoldering and flaming combustion. Particularly, the SI/GF/plywood exhibited the most effective fire barrier with no crack formation, and the lowest heat release rate among the plywood types investigated in this study.
