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
This study investigates the development of biomimetic sound-absorbing components through laser sintering technology, drawing inspiration from wood's natural porous structure. Using a pine wood powder/phenolic resin composite, various specimens were fabricated with different structural configurations (solid, fully porous, and varying straight-pore ratios) and cavity thicknesses. Sound absorption performance was evaluated using the impedance tube transfer function method. The effect of different composite structures, placement orientations, and cavity thicknesses on sound absorption performance was evaluated. The results demonstrate that solid laser-sintered samples exhibit inherent sound absorption properties due to microscopic pores, with absorption coefficients exceeding 0.234. The biomimetic wood-like structure, featuring multi-scale porosity at both microscopic and mesoscopic levels, shows enhanced broadband sound absorption, particularly in mid-high frequencies, with characteristic double-peak absorption curves. The study reveals that absorption performance can be optimized by adjusting structural parameters and thickness, enabling targeted frequency-specific sound absorption. This research establishes the feasibility of creating multi-frequency sound-absorbing materials using laser-sintered biomimetic wood structures, providing a foundation for future applications and development in acoustic engineering.
