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
Controlled ejection of liquids at capillary scales is a ubiquitous phenomenon associated with significant advances in, for instance, molecular biology or material synthesis. In this work, we introduce a high-throughput approach, which relies on a micromixing mechanism to eject and fragment viscous liquids, for production of microfibers from poly(vinyl alcohol) solutions. First, filaments were generated pneumatically with a so-called flow-blurring atomizer and using liquid flow rates of up to ∼1 L/min. Subsequently, the filaments were ionized online by corona discharge and consecutively manipulated with an electric field created by disc electrodes. Such charging of the filaments and the effect of the electric field allowed for their ultrafast elongation and diameter reduction from 150 μm down to fibers of 500 nm, which after collection exhibited fabric-like texture. The approach presented herein is a general procedure with potential for scalability that, upon proper adaptation, may be extended to various polymeric materials.
