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 incorporation of ground tire rubber (GTR) into elastomeric compounds offers a sustainable route for recycling end-of-life tires; however, its effect on the structure-property relationships governing mechanical and dielectric performance remains insufficiently understood. In this study, NR/SBR composites containing 0-50 phr of devulcanized GTR were prepared and characterized through Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), swelling analysis, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), mechanical testing, and broadband dielectric spectroscopy. FTIR and swelling results revealed enhanced matrix-GTR interaction at intermediate GTR loadings (10-20 phr), evidenced by an increased intensity of sulfur-related bands and reduced swelling degree, indicating partial chemical integration of the recycled phase into the elastomer network. Mechanical testing showed that increasing GTR content increased stiffness at high loadings, while tensile strength, elongation at break, and toughness progressively decreased due to interfacial debonding mechanisms. TGA demonstrated that the main degradation temperature of the NR/SBR matrix remained essentially unchanged (418-425 °C) across all formulations, confirming preservation of thermal stability despite increasing structural heterogeneity.
