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

Understanding the rheological behavior and thermal stability of hybrid polymer-nanoparticle solutions is crucial for designing enhanced oil recovery (EOR) processes under reservoir conditions. The graphene oxide (GO)-hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM) hybrid has recently emerged as a promising approach, drawing significant attention for its potential to improve EOR efficiency. This study evaluates the impact of polymer concentration, content of GO nanoparticles and ionic strength on the hybrid solution's performance through rheological measurements, long-term thermal stability tests, and ANOVA statistical analyses. Using a 2k factorial design and ANOVA, polymer concentration in the range of 1000-1500 ppm was identified as the primary factor, accounting for 58.34% contribution on the viscosity of hybrid solution, followed by divalent ion (18%), salinity (9%), and GO (5%). Accordingly, the Carreau rheological model was used to fit the rheological behavior of the hybrid solution. The hybrid formulation with 300 ppm GO retained 78% of its initial viscosity after 28 days at 80 °C, compared to lower retention for other formulations, highlighting the role of GO nanoparticles in improving polymer thermal stability. These findings advance the understanding of hybrid polymer-nanoparticle systems, highlight the specific role of GO nanoparticles to increase polymer performance, and provide valuable insights for designing the GO-polymer hybrid method for EOR purposes.
