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

Adhesive bonding is a suitable joining method to satisfy the increasing industrial demand for carbon fiber-reinforced polymers without the need for a machining process. However, thermoplastic-based carbon fiber-reinforced polymers have small adhesive strength with structural thermoset adhesives. In this study, an ultraviolet irradiation surface treatment was developed to improve the adhesive bonding strength for polyamide-based carbon fiber-reinforced polymer. The type of ultraviolet wavelength, irradiation distance and irradiation time were optimized. Surface treatment with simultaneous UV irradiation of 185 nm and 254 nm wavelength generated unbound N-H stretching that was capable of chemical bonding with epoxy adhesives through a photo-scission reaction of the amide bond of polyamide matrix. Therefore, ultraviolet irradiation treatment improved the wettability and functional groups of the polyamide-based carbon fiber-reinforced polymers for adhesive bonding. As a result, the adhesive strength of the polyamide-based carbon fiber-reinforced polymers was increased by more than 230%.
