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

The use of non-metallic conductive yarns in wearable technologies like smart textiles requires compliant washable fibers that can withstand domestic washing without losing their conductive properties. A one-pot coating with PEDOT:PSS conductive polymers was applied to polyester submicron fibers, increasing the water resistance and washability under various domestic washing conditions. Plasma treatment of the untreated samples improved the anchoring of the coating to the fibers, producing smooth and homogeneous coatings. The primary doping of PEDOT:PSS with ethylene glycol (EG), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and a non-ionic surfactant as well as the secondary doping of the composite fibers improved the sheet resistance at room temperature. The as-obtained composite materials showed similar mechanical properties as the parent fibers, indicating that the coating and post-treatment do not affect the overall mechanical property of the composite. The performance of the composites under different temperature and humidity conditions and washability using the standardized ISO 6330:2012 procedure for domestic washing and drying showed that the obtained composites are good candidates for reliable washable wearable technologies, such as all-organic washable Joule heaters in functional textiles.
