Robust Nanofiber Mats Exfoliated From Tussah Silk for Potential Biomedical Applications.
Article in Frontiers in bioengineering and biotechnology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Nanofibers as elements for bioscaffolds are pushing the development of tissue engineering. In this study, tussah silk was mechanically disintegrated into nanofibers dispersed in aqueous solution which was cast to generate tussah silk fibroin (TSF) nanofiber mats. The effect of treatment time on the morphology, structure, and mechanical properties of nanofiber mats was examined. SEM indicated decreasing diameter of the nanofiber with shearing time, and the diameter of the nanofiber was 139.7 nm after 30 min treatment. These nanofiber mats exhibited excellent mechanical properties; the breaking strength increased from 26.31 to 72.68 MPa with the decrease of fiber diameter from 196.5 to 139.7 nm. The particulate debris was observed on protease XIV degraded nanofiber mats, and the weight loss was greater than 10% after 30 days
