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

Both poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and NiTi possess shape memory and biocompatibility behavior. The macroscale properties of PMMA-NiTi composites depend immensely on the quality of the interaction between two components. NiTi shape memory alloy (SMA) and superelastic (SE) sheets were spin coated on one side with PMMA. The composite was prepared by the spin coating method with an alloy-to-polymer-thickness ratio of 1:3. The bending stiffness and radius of curvature were calculated by using numerical and experimental methods during thermal cycles. The experimental radius curvatures in actuation have good agreement with the model. The change in shape results from the difference in coefficients of thermal expansion between PMMA and NiTi. Actuation temperatures were between 0 and 100 °C for the SMA-PMMA composite with a change in curvature from 10 to 120 mm with fixed Young's modulus of PMMA at 3 GPa, and a change in Young's modulus of NiTi from 30 to 70 GPa. PMMA-NiTi composites are useful as actuators and sensor elements.
