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

Hydrogen transport and cyclic loading complicate O-ring assessment. This study developed an automated sequential screening workflow for ethylene-propylene-diene monomer (EPDM) O-rings, linking Abaqus mass diffusion, one-way concentration-field transfer to nonlinear structural/contact analysis with prescribed isotropic swelling, and fe-safe/Rubber fatigue post-processing. EPDM 60A and 90A were evaluated at sampled pressures of 3, 7, 14, and 21 MPa and circumferential installation stretches of 1-5%, with radial squeeze fixed at 20%. Structural analyses used third-order Reduced Polynomial models with built-in Mullins effects. Material-specific diffusivities characterized at approximately 1 bar were held constant across pressures; hydrogen-content and post-decompression free-specimen volume-change data informed model inputs. Fatigue inputs were characterized in air at approximately 23 °C using non-equivalent bases for the two compounds. At 1% stretch, fatigue-life outputs decreased from 6.877 × 10
