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

Optimisation of the tensile strength of thermoplastic polymer-matrix composites remains a scientific as well as technological challenge for 3D printing technology due to the mass application of composite materials. Inadequate mechanical properties are due to the mismatch in the surface energies of the polymer and fillers. In this study, an additively manufactured composite was 3D-printed and tested. The composite consisted of a linear low-density polyethylene matrix filled with glass fibres. Composite filaments were extruded from neat and plasma-treated polymer powders. Plasma was sustained in oxygen at 100 Pa by a pulsed microwave discharge, and 250 g of polymer powder of average diameter 150 µm was placed into a dish and stirred during the plasma treatment. The O-atom density at the position of the dish containing polymer powder was about 2 × 10
