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

Kraft paper, as a typical archival packaging material, is prone to microbial erosion, flammability, and moisture-induced degradation during long-term preservation. In this work, multifunctional archival packaging paper with integrated flame retardancy, antifungal activity, and hydrophobicity was successfully fabricated via the modification of boron-based flame retardants (borax, BX, and disodium octaborate tetrahydrate, DOT) and silane hydrophobic agent (octadecyltrimethoxysilane, ODTMS). The structure and performance of the modified kraft paper were systematically characterized by the limiting oxygen index (LOI), the vertical burning test, cone calorimetry (CCT), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), contact angle measurement, and the antifungal test. The optimized modified sample exhibited superior comprehensive properties. The LOI value increased from 20.6% for the original kraft paper to 37.5%. TGA revealed that the char residue of the optimized modified sample at 750 °C reached up to 55.35%, much higher than that of the original kraft paper, accompanied by marked decreases in the heat release rate, total heat release, and smoke production. Meanwhile, ODTMS endowed the modified sample with hydrophobic properties, with a water contact angle of approximately 130°. Antifungal tests demonstrated that the modified kraft paper displayed obvious inhibitory effects against eight fungal species, including
