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
The current paper aims to study the thermal stability of ethylene-propylene-diene monomer (EPDM) and styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene (SEBS) block copolymer attained by radiation processing and evaluated by chemiluminescence (CL). Three blends with different weight ratios (1:3, 1:1 and 3:1), as well as individual rubbers, are γ-irradiated at 25, 50, 100 and 150 kGy. Their thermal stabilities are intercompared, and the activation energies required for oxidative degradation are calculated by using the values of oxidation induction times. Another investigation concerning the development of gel is in good agreement with the CL results. The aspects related to the mechanisms of the radiation fragmentation of blended components are discussed. The contributions of the blending components are evaluated based on the peculiar kinetic parameters, namely oxidation induction time (OIT) and onset oxidation temperatures (OOTs). It is clearly demonstrated that the EPDM component serves as the main source of radicals required for crosslinking, while the SEBS skeletons become the structural frames for the new crosslinked branches. The activation energies increase from 50 kJ mol
