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
This work presents the experimental study of hybrid cement-based composites with polyvinyl alcohol fiber (PVA) and alkali-treated, short, natural curaua fiber. The objective of this research is to develop composites reinforced with PVA and curaua fiber to present strain-hardening behavior with average crack width control. To achieve this objective, three groups of composites were investigated. The first group had only PVA fiber in volumes of 0.5, 1, and 2%. The composite with 2% PVA fiber was the only one with strain-hardening and crack width control. The second group had 0.5% PVA fiber and volume fractions of 2, 2.5, and 3% curaua fiber, and presented only deflection-hardening behavior. The third group had 1% PVA and volumes of 1, 1.5, and 2% curaua fiber, and presented strain-hardening behavior. Based on the results, the hybrid combination of 1% PVA and 1.5% curaua was the optimal mixture as it presented strain-hardening behavior and crack width control, with a lower volume of synthetic PVA fiber. Additionally, compressive strength and mix workability were calculated for the investigated composites for comparison.
