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

This paper investigates the damage resistance and tolerance of thermoset composite laminates stitched by glass and hybrid glass/polypropylene commingled yarns. Different impact energies (10-70 J) were applied to stitched composite laminates before compression after impact (CAI) tests were conducted. The results showed that, except for 70J, commingled yarn-stitched laminates absorbed more energy than glass-stitched laminates. Compression tests revealed that glass-stitched and commingled composites had, respectively, 2 % and 5 % higher compressive strengths than unstitched laminates. After being impacted to 10-70J energies, glass yarn stitched laminates kept 83-36 % of their compressive strength, while commingled yarn stitched laminates retained 73-40 %, showing that the commingled yarns were more efficient at higher energies. The study found that integrating plastically deformed fibres into hybrid stitching yarns increased energy absorption and composite fracture mechanism by encouraging fibre/matrix debonding, resulting in fewer fibre breakages.
