Pultrusion of glass fiber reinforced polypropylene bidirectional composites and their mechanical performance.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Despite the advantages of thermoplastic resin, pultrusion process has struggled to create bidirectional laminates, resulting in weaknesses in joint connections and transverse properties. To tackle this issue, the study focuses on developing a methodology for pultruding bidirectional laminates. Initially, two types of sheet thermoplastic prepreg of glass fiber and polypropylene were produced: one with transverse (90°) orientation of fibers and another with longitudinal (0°) orientation of fibers. These sheets are then integrated into a single pack where fibers are oriented both transversely and longitudinally, and fed into the pultrusion machine. The resulting strip profiles (75 × 3.5 mm) demonstrate threefold increase in pin-bearing strength and transverse properties, showing a considerable promise for applications that demand robust joint connections and dimensional stability. The addition of transversely reinforced plies makes it possible for the pultruded profile to meet the EN 13706-3 requirements to mechanical performance. The bidirectional thermoplastic profiles produced in this study demonstrated high mechanical properties and are suitable for use in composite structures with bolted joints.
