Understanding Wood Surface Chemistry and Approaches to Modification: A Review.
Review in Polymers, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Wood was designed, after millions of years of evolution, to perform in a wet environment. Nature is programmed to recycle it, in a timely way, back to the basic building blocks of carbon dioxide and water. All recycling chemistries start with an invasion of the wood surface. The surface of wood is porous, hygroscopic, viscoelastic, and anisotropic that is better defined in interface/interphase zones. This surface is dynamic and in constant change with changing humidity, temperature, oxygen levels, ultraviolet energy, microorganisms and stress. This chapter is a review of the chemical properties of a wood surface and performance issues associated with it.
