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
This study presents the modeling and analysis of a composite structure incorporating an embedded macro fiber composite (MFC) patch. MFC actuators are available in several variants, with types P1 and P2 being the most commonly used. In this paper, an electromechanical model of the hybrid structure is developed, and experimental procedures are outlined for identifying selected system parameters. In the first phase of the study, two separate cantilever beam specimens are investigated-one with an embedded P1 patch and the other with a P2 patch. Their behaviors are tested and compared to identify and critically assess the advantages and limitations associated with each MFC type. In the second phase, a more complex system-a bistable cantilever shell-is examined. The choice of the appropriate MFC type (P1 or P2) for this structure is based on the findings obtained in the first phase. For the system incorporating the selected MFC patch, the dynamic response is analyzed in the vicinity of both stable equilibrium states, which are characterized by significantly different levels of pre-strain and pre-stress. The study concludes with highlights for the design of smart composite structures with integrated MFC patches.
