Pilot-Scale Electrospinning of PLA Using Biobased Dyes as Multifunctional Additives.
Article in Polymers, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Fibers with diameters in the lower micrometer range have unique properties suitable for applications in the textile and biomedical industries. Such fibers are usually produced by solution electrospinning, but this process is environmentally harmful because it requires the use of toxic solvents. Melt electrospinning is a sustainable alternative but the high viscosity and low electrical conductivity of molten polymers produce thicker fibers. Here, we used multifunctional biobased dyes as additives to improve the spinnability of polylactic acid (PLA), improving the spinnability by reducing the electrical resistance of the melt, and incorporating antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus. Spinning trials using our 600-nozzle pilot-scale melt-electrospinning device showed that the addition of dyes produced narrower fibers in the resulting fiber web, with a minimum diameter of ~9 µm for the fiber containing 3% (
