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

End-of-life (EoL) continuous glass fibre-reinforced polyamide 6 composites (cGF/PA6) are commonly recycled by shredding and milling, followed by injection moulding, often resulting in lower mechanical properties of second-generation products, primarily due to fibre length reduction. This study investigates the thermomechanical reprocessing of cGF/PA6 laminates via compression moulding, aiming to retain maximum mechanical performance by preserving the fibre length. Two types of 2/2 twill glass fibre-reinforced anionically polymerised polyamide 6 laminates (cGF/APA6), with either a reactive sizing agent (RS) or a non-reactive sizing agent (nRS), were reprocessed at two different temperatures, i.e., at 180 °C (between the glass transition temperature (T
