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

backgroundHairdressers often reuse disposable gloves, yet the effect of repeated washing on protection against oxidative hair-dye sensitizers is unclear.

objectivesTo determine how reuse and wash type influence the permeation of p-phenylenediamine (PPD) and aminophenols through natural-rubber-latex (NRL) and neoprene gloves.

methodsClosed-loop ASTM F739 tests (27°C) were run for five consecutive 8-h exposures, each followed by either a water-only rinse or a detergent wash. Breakthrough time (BT), steady-state permeation rate (PR) and cumulative permeated mass (CPM) were quantified; linear mixed models were used to evaluate the effects of reuse day, wash type and concentration.

resultsNRL failed after one reuse; by Day 5, CPM reached 110 μg, and BT shortened. Neoprene maintained BT > 2 h across two reuse cycles; however, by Day 5, CPM increased by 41 μg. Wash type did not affect BT, PR, or CPM (p > 0.05). In NRL, each 1% (w/v) concentration increment shortened BT by 1.1 min and increased PR by 0.037 μg/cm

conclusionsBarrier performance was governed more by the reuse cycle than the rinse chemistry. Reuse of single-use gloves is not recommended because repeated use and cleaning reduce their protective performance.
