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

This study investigates the effects of filament winding parameters (tension and mosaic pattern) on the mechanical performance of thin-walled fiber-reinforced polymer composite tubes under internal pressure. The pressure was generated through axial compression of an elastomeric insert, providing a controlled alternative to conventional hydrostatic burst testing. Tubes were manufactured with different combinations of winding tension (10-50 N) in the ±55° and hoop layers. Within the ±55° layer, several mosaic pattern configurations were tested. Structural responses were evaluated using pressure testing, Digital Image Correlation (DIC), and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). 20 N was identified as the most efficient tension level, improving interlaminar integrity and increasing hoop tensile strength by approximately 8-13%. Specimens with a hoop layer failed abruptly by hoop-dominated brittle fracture, characterized by longitudinal splitting and fiber rupture in the circumferential direction. Among the investigated mosaic configurations, the 3/3 pattern demonstrated the most efficient structural response-the mean hoop tensile strength (1088 ± 43 MPa) was approximately 31-40% higher than that of the remaining configurations (722-798 MPa). Overall, the results indicate that both winding tension and mosaic pattern influence the failure pressure, with optimized configurations contributing to improved pressure resistance and structural consistency.
