Mechanical Characteristics of Glass-Fiber-Reinforced Polyester Composite Materials.
Article in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Fiber-reinforced composites are gaining more importance across different fields such as aeronautics, automotives, high-performance sporting equipment, etc., where decreasing weight while improving mechanical properties of polymers is fundamental. This article explores the mechanical behavior of fiber-reinforced polyester composite materials, highlighting their advantages and applications in various industrial fields. Usually, composite materials consist of a polyester matrix reinforced with different types of fibers, such as glass, carbon, or Kevlar, which provide superior mechanical characteristics. This study analyzed the tensile strength, bending resistance, and resilience of glass fiber composites, emphasizing the importance of proper fiber selection and manufacturing processes. These materials stand out for their excellent strength-to-weight ratio and are widely used in the fabrication of tanks in various industries. Experimental results demonstrated tensile strength (Rm) around 115 MPa, Shore D hardness values of 88 units, and impact toughness (resilience) of 2.7 J/cm
