Comparative Study on Strengths of Ready-to-Assemble and Eccentric Furniture Joint.
Article in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This study compared two groups of furniture joints, i.e., a so-called ready-to-assemble (RTA) plastic biscuit joint from Lamello©, while the second group consists of four types of eccentric joints with beech dowels. L-shaped specimens were prepared with the help of the selected joints and a three-layer particleboard with dimensions of 150 × 150 × 400 mm. These L-shaped specimens were tested for bending moment capacity under compression and under tension. Cam joints with wooden dowels can withstand high stress. If Lamello© Bisco P-15 joints are added to the plastic Clamex P-14 joint, this joint will achieve 13% higher values for bending moment capacity under compression and 22% under tension. During testing, the worst result was achieved by the Tenso P-14 joint. The best values achieved during the testing of bending moment capacity under compression and under tension were for an eccentric joint with the use of a metal-capped bolt and Euro screw. This joint achieved 147% higher values for bending moment capacity under compression than a standard eccentric joint with a euro screw bolt and 213% higher values for bending moment capacity under compression than the Lamello© and Clamex P-14 joints. This study aimed to determine how the joints differ, how they behave during testing, and what deformations occur.
