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

In this study, the thermoforming formability of continuous glass fiber-reinforced polypropylene (CGFRPP) laminates below the melting temperature were investigated. The forming limits of CGFRPP laminates were explored using flexural tests, Erichsen tests and deep drawing tests. The failure mechanism of CGFRPP in thermoforming was investigated by observing typical failure specimens using a microscope. The results show that the flexural performance and Erichsen performance are optimal at 130 °C and 2 mm/min. At 160 °C and 100 mm/min, the deep drawing performance is optimal. The restriction of fibers by the matrix is affected by the deformation temperature, and the creation of defects is affected by the deformation rate. During forming, the CGFRPP laminates undergo shear and extrusion deformations, resulting in wrinkles, delamination, and fiber aggregation.
