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

Sputtering technique involves the use of plasma that locally heats surfaces of substrates during the deposition of atoms or molecules. This modifies the microstructure by increasing crystallinity and the adhesive properties of the substrate. In this study, the effect of sputtering on the microstructure of parylene-C was investigated in an aluminum nitride (AlN)-rich plasma environment. The sputtering process was carried out for 30, 45, 90 and 120 min on a 5 μm thick parylene-C film. Topography and morphology analyses were conducted on the parylene-C/AlN bilayers. Based on the experimental data, the results showed that the crystallinity of parylene-C/AlN bilayers was increased after 30 min of sputtering and remained saturated for 120 min. A scratch-resistance test conducted on the bilayers depicted that a higher force is required to delaminate the bilayers on top of the substrate. Thus, the adhesion properties of parylene-C/AlN bilayers were improved on glass substrate by about 17% during the variation of sputtering time.
