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

The infusion kinetics of tea bags containing black tea or green tea has been studied in detail in the past. However, the tea bag papers have never been characterized and evaluated earlier to understand their contribution towards tea bag infusion. In the present work, papers used for making tea bags were characterized for thickness, wettability, surface topography, pore size, porosity and permeance to understand their influence on infusion kinetics of tea bags. Scanning electron microscopy studies highlighted the pore structure and porous nature of tea bag papers. The porosity of tea bag paper was quantified using image processing and permeance was determined experimentally. Besides, a relationship between porosity and permeance of tea bag papers has been perceived. A general trend of increase in permeance with increasing porosity was observed. Woven nylon paper showed the highest permeance (23.9 × 10
