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
Temporary plugging diversion fracturing (TPDF) technology has been widely used in various oil fields for repeated reconstruction of high-water-cut old oil wells and horizontal well reservoir reconstruction. Previous studies have carried out in-depth study on the pressure-bearing law and placement morphology of different types of temporary plugging agents (TPAs) in fractures, but there are relatively few studies on TPA accumulation body permeability. To solve this problem, an experimental device for evaluating the TPA performance with adjustable fracture pores is proposed in this paper. Based on the test of fracturing fluid breaking time and residue content, the low damage of fracturing fluid to the reservoir is determined. The TPA degradation performance test determines whether the TPA causes damage to the hydraulic fracture after the temporary plugging fracturing. Finally, by testing the TPA pressure-bearing capacity and the temporary plugging aggregation body permeability, the plugging performance and the aggregation body permeability are determined. The results show the following: (1) Guar gum fracturing fluid shows good gel-breaking performance under the action of breaking agent, and the recommended concentration of breaking agent is 300 ppm. At 90~120 °C, the degradation rate of the three types of TPAs can reach more than 65%, and it can be effectively carried into the wellbore during the fracturing fluid flowback stage to achieve the effect of removing the TPA in the fracture. (2) The results of the pressure-bearing performance of the TPA show that the two kinds of TPAs can quickly achieve the plugging effect after plugging start: the effect of ZD-2 (poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA)) particle-and-powder combined TPA on forming an effective temporary plugging accumulation body in fractures is better than that of ZD-1 (PLGA) pure powder. There are large pores between the particles, and the fracturing fluid can still flow through the pores, so the ZD-3 (a mixture of lactide and PLGA) granular temporary plugging agent cannot form an effective plugging. (3) The law of length of the temporary plugging accumulation body shows that the ZD-2 combined TPA has stronger plugging ability for medium-aperture simulated fracture pores, while the ZD-1 powder TPA has stronger plugging ability for small aperture simulated fracture pores, and the ZD-3 granular TPA should be avoided alone as far as possible. This study further enriches and improves the understanding of the mechanism of temporary plugging diverting fracturing fluid.
