Change in Micro-Morphology and Micro-Mechanical Properties of Thermally Modified Moso Bamboo.
Article in Polymers, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
In recent years, saturated steam heat treatment has been considered as an environmentally friendly and cost-effective modification method compared with traditional heat treatment media. In this study, bamboo was treated by saturated steam, and the change in chemical composition, cellulose crystallinity index, micro-morphology, and micromechanical properties were analyzed by a wet chemistry method, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), nanoindentation, and so on. Results illustrated that the parenchyma cell walls were distorted due to the decomposition of hemicellulose and cellulose in bamboo samples. As expected, the hemicellulose and cellulose content decreased, whereas the lignin content increased significantly. In addition, the cellulose crystallinity index and thus the micromechanical properties of bamboo cell walls increased. For example, the hardness increased from 0.69 GPa to 0.84 GPa owing to the enhanced crystallinity index and lignin content.
