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
Powder-based fire extinguishing agents have become a kind of promising substitutes for halon extinguishing agents in civil aircrafts. However, their storage lifespan, significantly influenced by the thermal aging, emerges as a crucial yet overlooked aspect for aviation use. This study investigates the effects of thermal aging cycles on various parameters of ordinary dry powder extinguishing agent (ODPEA) and novel superhydrophobic and oleophobic ultra-fine dry powder extinguishing agent (SHOU DPEA), including surface microscopic morphology, D90 (the diameter at which 90% of the cumulative volume of particles are equal to or smaller than this value), chemical structure, hydrophobic and oleophobic angles, flowability, extinguishing time and effectiveness. The results indicate that SHOU DPEA exhibits smaller particle size, more regular particle shape, significantly superior heat stability and flowability compared to ODPEA. Furthermore, the D90 value evolution of ODPEA with aging time exhibits two stages: (a) a slow and linear growth stage (0-160 days), and (b) a rapid and substantial growth stage (160-200 days). However, SHOU DPEA shows a gradual increase in D90 value throughout the entire accelerated aging process. After 160 days of aging or more, the performance of ODPEA has significantly deteriorated, while SHOU DPEA has shown less degradation. Specially, the extinguishing concentration for the 160-day-aged ODPEA exceeds that of non-aged ODPEA by 10%, whereas the concentration of the 200-day-aged SHOU DPEA is less than 10% of the non-aged counterpart. Additionally, the predicted lifespans for ODPEA and SHOU DPEA at room temperature (25 °C) are 2715 days and over 4525 days, respectively. These findings can provide valuable guidance for assessments and the selection of aviation fire extinguishing agents.
