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

Hot-pressing densification is an effective method to enhance the mechanical properties of wood; however, excessively high pressing temperatures can cause thermal degradation of wood components, compromising these improvements. In this study, aminated lignin (AL), with improved water solubility and reactive amino groups facilitating crosslinking, was utilized as a bio-based amine curing agent for the water-soluble, low-molecular-weight epoxy compound polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (PEGDGE). The PEGDGE-AL modifier was applied for wood impregnation, followed by hot-pressing densification at a relatively low temperature of 120 °C, to enhance the mechanical properties of wood. The chemical composition of AL was analyzed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The gelation and curing behavior of the PEGDGE-AL modifier demonstrated its ability to readily form a network structure at both room temperature and elevated temperatures. The impact strength of densified wood (DW) modified with 12 wt% PEGDGE and 8 wt% AL, denoted as 12PEGDGE+8AL-DW, exhibited an impact strength of 15.2 kJ/m
