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

Electrospun fibrous mats, characterized by their large surface-to-volume ratios, have unique and beneficial properties for various applications. The micro or nanoscale architectures of these structures significantly affects the mechanical properties of the material. The lack of knowledge for predicting the mechanical behavior of electrospun fibrous mats may prevent applications utilizing the se mats from reaching their full potential. In this paper, we propose a new computational model to predict the mechanical behavior of an electrospun fibrous mat by considering its microstructure and the percentage of the cross-points that are bonded. The model of the electrospun mat with randomly distributed fibers is considered in uniaxial and biaxial tension. Three cases are studied: (1) no interaction in cross-points of intersecting fibers, (2) half of the cross-points are bonded, (3) all of the cross-points are bonded. The results show that along with the mechanical properties of individual fibers, the fusion bonding of fibers is a critical parameter for tuning the mechanical properties of the bulk material. In a predefined porosity, the interfiber fusion enhanced the stiffness of the mat by 60%, which is independent of the loading mode and the mechanical property of individual fibers. For all ranges of porosities, bonding increases the stiffness of the mat; however, the bonding is more effective at stiffening when the porosity of the mat is low.
