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

Styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) is an attractive block copolymer for Pressure Sensitive Adhesives (PSA) for labels, tapes, and hygiene products due to its good tack and easy processability. A key challenge in PSA formulation is overcoming the inherent trade-off between adhesion (tack) and cohesion (shear strength). This study is aimed to explore the potential of coumarone resin as a dual-phase tackifier for SBS based PSA. Owing to its aromatic structure and flexible side groups, cumarone-SBS blend offers a unique viscoelastic spectrum. Our findings confirmed strong resin-polymer compatibility and improved thermal stability. Rheological studies further showed that SBS formulations with coumarone develop a broader viscoelastic plateau and achieve a well-balanced relationship between elasticity (
