Characteristics of Kevlar and Glass Fibers, the Effects of Physical and Methodological Parameters, and the Influence of Hybridization with Vegetable Fibers on Impact Properties of Composites-A Review.
Review in Polymers, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Integration of composites into the fabrication process of structural assemblies within the aerospace, automotive, marine or civil engineering industries represents a rational solution adopted by leading companies which are guided by the necessity for novel low-weight, high-strength, and high-stiffness materials. During the manufacturing process and throughout the service life, fiber-reinforced polymer structures are subjected to impact loading, either accidentally or as an inherent requirement of the operational cycle. Firstly, general aspects regarding impact loading and some parameters used for its characterization are briefly described. Recent progress regarding the influence of the stacking sequence, fiber type, and impactor geometry on the impact performance of Kevlar and glass fiber reinforced composite materials is emphasized. Additionally, the effects of environmental factors (such as temperature, UV radiation, or humidity) on the impact energy absorbed by polymers reinforced with each of the two types of synthetic fibers are presented. Finally, the importance of directing the researcher's judgment towards improving the characteristics of materials subjected to impact, from a sustainable perspective, is motivated through the presentation of the impact behavior of polymer composites reinforced with Kevlar fibers or glass fibers hybridized with vegetable fibers.
