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
Tribological performance is a critical aspect of materials used in biomedical applications, as it can directly impact the comfort and functionality of devices for individuals with disabilities. Polylactic Acid (PLA) is a widely used 3D-printed material in this field, but its mechanical and tribological properties can be limiting. This study focuses on the development of an artificial intelligence model using ANFIS to predict the wear volume of PLA composites under various conditions. The model was built on data gathered from tribological experiments involving PLA green composites with different weight fractions of date particles. These samples were annealed for different durations to eliminate residual stresses from 3D printing and then subjected to tribological tests under varying normal loads and sliding distances. Mechanical properties and finite element models were also analyzed to better understand the tribological results and evaluate the load-carrying capacity of the PLA composites. The ANFIS model demonstrated excellent compatibility and robustness in predicting wear volume, with an average percentage error of less than 0.01% compared to experimental results. This study highlights the potential of heat-treated PLA green composites for improved tribological performance in biomedical applications.
