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
The aim of the study was to develop a suitable pre-treatment (and more specifically, the etching operation) of 3D-printed PET and PETG samples with different filling densities of the inner layers for subsequent electroless metallization. The influence of temperature, etching time, and sodium hydroxide concentration in the etching solution on the deposition rate, adhesion, and composition of Ni-P coatings was determined. The studies show that a high temperature and concentration of the etching solution do not improve the properties of the coating. The etching not only plays an important role in improving adhesion but also affects the composition and thickness of the nickel layer. It was also established how the degree of filling densities of the inner layers affects the uniformity, penetration depth, and thickness of electrolessly deposited Cu and Ni-P coatings on 3D PETG samples.
