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

Phenolic aerogels offer low thermal conductivity, excellent thermal stability, and high char yield, but they suffer from intrinsic brittleness, low compressive modulus, and limited compressive strain. To overcome these limitations, phenolic aerogels modified with graphene oxide were synthesized and their structural, mechanical, and thermal insulation properties were evaluated. The GO fillers were uniformly dispersed in the phenolic matrix without disrupting its porous structure. Mechanical testing revealed that the modified aerogel achieved a compressive modulus of 265.52 MPa, representing a 67% increase over the pure phenolic aerogel's value of 158.49 MPa, and a compressive strength of 40.19 MPa, compared to 6.18 MPa, for the pure sample. At the same time, the composite maintained good thermal insulation performance, with a thermal conductivity of 0.063 W·m
