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
Double gloving of disposable gloves occurs in healthcare when extra protection is required against carcinogens, sensitizers, pathogens and sharps. Triple gloving is much rarer. The resistances of single, double and triple layers of disposable nitrile glove material against 2-butoxyethanol (2-BE) were compared with the resistance of a single layer of Microflex 93-260 (Microflex). Three 2.54 cm ASTM F739 permeation cells with closed-loop water collection without recirculation in a moving tray water bath at 35.0 ± 0.5 °C facilitated the permeation relative to a blank cell. Capillary gas chromatography/mass spectrometry allowed the determination of the standardized breakthrough time (SBT), steady state permeation rate (SSPR) and cumulated permeated mass/area (CPM/A) by 30 min. Two nitrile layers (267 ± 14 µm) were about the same thickness as the Microflex layer (249 ± 6 µm). Statistical analysis showed equivalence at
