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
To promote the application of natural dyes in eco-textiles and develop multifunctional silk fabrics, this study optimized the extraction of functional pigments from rhubarb and investigated their dyeing performance and functional properties on silk. The optimal extraction conditions were determined as pH 11, 80 °C, 50 min, with three extraction stages. The optimized direct dyeing parameters for silk fabrics were: dye bath pH value of 7, bath ratio of 1:40, dye solution concentration of 5%, and dyeing at 80 °C for 60 min. Post-dyeing metal ion mordanting significantly regulated the hue and dyeing depth of fabrics, with ferrous sulfate mordanting demonstrating the most ideal effect, enabling fabrics to exhibit deep gray coloration and a substantial increase in K/S value. The dyed silk exhibited significantly enhanced Ultraviolet (UV) protection (UPF 18.72 for direct dyeing, reaching 29.80 after Fe
