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

A multi-vane and multi-slit electrospinning nozzle for diversion was proposed to respond to the issues of easiness of clogging, existing End Effect among needles in current multi-needle electrospinning, and uncontrollable Taylor cone position in needleless electrospinning. The upper part of the novel nozzle is a cylindrical straight pipe, and the lower part is a flow channel expansion structure composed of multiple vane components that spread outward at an angle. Ansys software was used to study the effect of different opening angles of the vanes on the spreading of the electrospinning solution. In the fluid simulation, for the novel nozzle with a central slit and a support structure, when the vanes have an opening angle of 35° and a length of 11 mm, the droplet holding time is 16 s, twice as long as the nozzle without support (8 s). This result corresponds to the subsequent droplet holding experiment, showing that the support structure aids droplet holding and enhances electrospinning stability. Comsol Multiphysics software was used to investigate the effect of the vanes' parameters on the uniformity of the electric field. The results indicate that when the vanes of the new electrospinning nozzle are set at an opening angle of 35°, with four vanes each 11 mm in length, a receiving distance of 200 mm, and a voltage of 30 kV, the novel nozzle achieves an average electric field intensity of 5.26 × 10⁶ V/m with a CV value of 6.93%. Metal 3D printing was used to create a new nozzle for electrospinning, which successfully produced stable multiple jets and increased nanofiber output.
