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

Sandwich composites are broadly recognised for their excellent stiffness, strength, and durability while minimising their weight. This study investigates the fabrication, mechanical testing, thermal analysis, and microstructural characterisation of magnesium-carbon fiber sandwich composites for aircraft applications. The composite panels were fabricated using traditional methods such as filament drum winding, followed by hand layup and compression moulding with six stacking sequences, including unidirectional ([0°], [45°], [90°]), bidirectional ([0°/90°], [45°/-45°]), and multidirectional ([0°/90°/45°/-45°]) fiber orientations. X-ray diffraction (XRD) investigated phase composition and crystalline structure. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) revealed two-stage degradation, with [0°/90°]
