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
The roughness of woven fabric surface has so far been mainly investigated as a key characteristic of comfort in contact with the skin. The analysis of roughness can be extended to various contexts and applications, becoming an important tool for understanding how textile materials react in interaction with different finishing agents, as well as for gaining insight into the durability and effectiveness of treatments. This research presents a comprehensive study on the impact of alkaline hydrolysis and chitosan coating on the roughness of polyester woven fabric, utilizing both novel and adapted methods. The study employed contact and optical methods to analyze fabric and fiber surface characteristics, highlighting the significance of roughness profile parameters in understanding material changes post-treatment. The investigation revealed that mechanical action, alkaline medium, washing temperature, and detergent residues contribute to fabric erosion and modification during washing, with chitosan coatings creating pronounced surface irregularities. Comparative analysis showed significant fabric roughness changes post-washing, while fiber roughness changes were treatment specific. Despite initial increases in fiber roughness due to treatments, their durability decreased after washing. These findings emphasize the importance of roughness analysis in optimizing textile finishing processes and washing cycles, impacting both comfort and treatment efficacy.
