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 properties of composite materials are highly dependent on the fiber and matrix fraction and on the porosity resulting from micro voids. This paper addresses void content characterization and the constituent content of composite materials by resorting to a comparison of destructive and non-destructive methods. The work presents the detailed procedures of two destructive methods, using acid digestion of epoxy resins matrices, and compares their processes. It also presents the results of a non-destructive method, by means of Micro Computed Tomography (MicroCT). The results of both destructive and non-destructive methods are compared, and a recommendation is made based on the application and the type of composite being analyzed. The MicroCT showed better and more consistent results in detecting voids in the material, while the acid digestion tests provided better results about the fiber and matrix percentage. Exported results from the MicroCT scanning with actual locations of voids were used in numerical analysis, to examine the feasibility of using them, whether by developing models that map damage in the proximity of the void, or by developing models that predict the properties of the entire material with respect to the content, shape, and distribution in the material.
