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

In order to cope with the emergence of energy conservation and consumption reduction initiatives, we used an acrylic emulsion (as the adhesive), combined with silica aerogel (SA) and hollow glass microsphere (HGM) fillers, to synthesize thermal insulation coatings, which were found to have low thermal conductivity and excellent thermal insulation properties. These waterborne coatings are environmentally friendly and were synthesized without organic solvents. Comprehensive testing verified that the coatings met practical requirements. Specifically, the addition of 18% SA resulted in minimal thermal conductivity (0.0433 W/m·K), the lowest density (0.177 g/cm
