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
Mechanical coffee drying is an energy-intensive stage of postharvest processing that directly affects product quality and production costs. This study evaluated the technical and economic feasibility of using expanded polystyrene (EPS) as a thermal insulation material to improve the performance of a mechanical coffee dryer and to demonstrate its potential for sustainable reuse. Experiments were conducted using a total of 210 kg of wet parchment coffee (
