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

Biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA) was used to fabricate nonwoven fabrics via the melt blowing process, followed by electrospinning to deposit a nanofiber membrane. This composite process yielded PLA melt-blown/electrospun composite materials with excellent filtration performance. The effects of the solution concentration and spinning duration on the composite structure and material performance were investigated. The optimal composite was produced using a 10 wt.% PLA spinning solution prepared with a solvent mixture of dichloromethane (DCM) and N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF) in a 75/25 weight ratio. The process parameters included a spinning duration of 5 h, 18 kV voltage, 1.5 mL/h flow rate, and 12 cm collection distance. The resulting composite achieved a filtration efficiency of 98.7%, a pressure drop of 142 Pa, an average pore size of 5 μm, and a contact angle of 138.7°. These results provided optimal process parameters for preparing PLA melt-blown/electrospun composite filtration materials. This study highlights the potential of hydrophobic PLA composites with high filtration efficiency and low air resistance as environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional non-degradable filtration materials.
