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

Self-healing fabrics have attracted increasing attention as a sustainable solution to extend fabric lifespan and reduce material waste. However, most reported self-healing fabrics rely on extrinsic systems with limited healing cycles, or intrinsic polymers that compromise breathability due to irreversible layer adhesion. In this work, a simple and scalable dip-coating method is reported to fabricate intrinsically self-healing fabrics that retain their porous structure and air permeability. Commercial fabrics are coated with surface-modified silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) and a polymeric ionic gel (PIG) composed of poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF-HFP) and ionic liquid ([EMI]
