UV Irradiation of Wood Surface: Bonding Properties.
Article in Polymers, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Various surface modification techniques have been developed to improve synthetic polymer surfaces' wetting, adhesion, and printing by adding various functional (polar) groups. UV irradiation has been proposed as a suitable procedure to achieve adequate surface modifications of such polymers, which can be of further use to bond many compounds of interest. The activation of the surface, the favourable wetting properties, and the increased micro tensile strength of the substrate after short-term UV irradiation suggest that such pretreatment can also improve the bonding of the wood-glue system. Thus, this study aims to determine the feasibility of UV irradiation for pretreatment of wood surfaces before gluing and to determine the properties of wooden glued joints prepared in this way. UV irradiation was used to modify variously machined pieces of beech wood (
