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
In the article we investigated the effectiveness of a synergistic system designed to reduce the fire hazard of flexible polyurethane (PUR) foams. The examined system consisted of a carbon-based filler graphene (G), carbon nanotubes (CNTs), or expanded graphite (EG) combined with melamine polyphosphate (MPP). The investigated polyurethane foams (PUR) were synthesized at room temperature via a polycondensation reaction between a polyol and an isocyanate, with an OH: NCO molar ratio of 2:1. Both the carbon fillers and melamine polyphosphate were homogeneously dispersed within the polyol component. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), cone calorimetry, and microcalorimetry were used to evaluate the influence of the fillers on the thermal stability and flammability of the PUR foams. The toxicity of the gaseous products was assessed using a coupled TG-gas analysis system, while the optical density of the evolved gases was determined using a Smoke Density Chamber (SDC). The obtained results demonstrated that the applied synergistic carbon-phosphorus filler system significantly reduced the fire hazard of the tested PUR foams. In particular, the EG5-MPP system enabled the formation of self-extinguishing materials.
