Comprehensive Simulation-Based Evaluation of Gamma Radiation Shielding Performance of Bismuth Oxide- and Tungsten Oxide-Reinforced Polymer Composites for Nuclear Medicine Occupational Safety.
Article in Polymers, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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 employs simulation tools to design and evaluate lightweight, lead-free polymer composites incorporating polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), polyethylene (PE), and polyetherimide (PEI) for gamma radiation shielding in nuclear medicine. Targeting clinically relevant photon energies from Tc-99m (140 keV), I-131 (364 keV), and Cs-137 (662 keV), composites' structural and shielding performance with Bi
