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

The growing demand for sustainable and energy-efficient materials has positioned aerogels as promising candidates for advanced insulation applications. Among them, polyurethane (PU) aerogels are attracting increasing interest due to their thermal insulation properties and mechanical versatility. However, their development commonly relies on trial-and-error experimentation, which is time-consuming and resource-intensive. This study presents a Digital Twin (DT) framework to support PU aerogel design and reduce the experimental workload. A pilot-scale DT was developed using data from 21 synthesis experiments, including process configuration, parameter mapping, model development, and process analysis. Two predictive models were evaluated, with the Support Vector Regression (SVR) model showing good agreement with the experimental data (R
