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

Emulsions are traditionally prepared by batched emulsifying an oil phase and aqueous phase with a magnetic/mechanical stirrer, homogenizer, or ultrasonic machine, etc. Herein, high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) produced with a miniature twin screw extruder were first investigated. Adding an oil phase (the mixture of styrene, divinylbenzene, and span 80) and aqueous phase to the inlet of a miniature twin screw extruder, a series of white and viscous HIPEs were obtained at the outlet of the extruder. With the screw rotation speed and the surfactant content varied respectively in the ranges of 50-200 rpm and 5-20%, a series of HIPEs having uniform droplet size were produced. Polymerizing these HIPEs caused a series of polymerized HIPES, which have a well-defined open-cell structure. The method developed herein shows that it is possible to prepare emulsions with oil and water by twin screw extrusion. Also, it may also cause a continuous preparation of HIPEs when the miniature twin screw extruder was replaced by an industrial extruder.
