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

This study developed modified poly (butylene succinate) (MPBS) nanocomposites reinforced with ZnO nanoplate-decorated carbon nanotubes (CNT-ZNP) to improve mechanical, thermal, and functional properties for food packaging applications. MPBS was synthesized via grafting of maleic anhydride to enhance compatibility with nanofillers. Incorporation of only 0.1 g/hg CNT-ZNP led to substantial improvements in tensile strength (36.5 %), elongation at break (108.6 %), and yield strength (41.6 %), demonstrating that enhanced performance can be achieved with minimal nanofiller content. The nanocomposite also exhibited enhanced crystallinity, thermal stability, and water vapor barrier performance. Food preservation tests demonstrated that MPBS/CNT-ZNP films effectively maintained banana freshness over 14 days and inhibited microbial growth in raw chicken for up to 108 h. These outcomes highlight the material's potential to extend shelf life and reduce spoilage in perishable products. Overall, the MPBS/CNT-ZNP nanocomposites combine mechanical robustness with antimicrobial and preservation functionality, supporting their application as sustainable and multifunctional food packaging films.
