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 integration of nanomaterials into the textile industry has significantly advanced the development of high-performance fabrics, offering enhanced properties such as UV blocking, fire resistance, breathability, hydrophobicity, antimicrobial activity, and dust rejection. In this context, our research explores the development and characterization of electrospun membranes composed of polyether ether ketone (PEEK) and various polyimides (PIs (1-6)), focusing on their application in protective clothing. The combination of phosphorus-containing polyimides and PEEK, along with the electrospinning process, enhances the distinctive properties of both PEEK and polyimides, leading to composite membranes that stand out according to key parameters essential for maintaining physiological balance. The structural and morphological characteristics of these membranes have been evaluated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) to identify the functional groups and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to examine their morphology. These analyses provide critical insights into these materials' properties, which influence key performance parameters such as moisture management, breathability, and barrier functions. The membranes' breathability and impermeability were assessed through the water vapor transmission rate (WVTR), contact angle measurements, water and air permeability, and flame resistance tests. The results obtained indicate that PEEK/polyimide composite membranes meet the complex requirements of modern protective textiles, ensuring both safety and comfort for users through their optimized structural properties and enhanced functional capabilities.
