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

Wheat straw/poly(lactic acid) (WS/PLA) biocomposites provide a promising route for agricultural residue valorization, but poor interfacial compatibility limits their performance. This study investigated the effect of maleic-anhydride-grafted PLA (PLA-g-MAH) on WS/PLA biocomposites containing 50 wt% wheat straw. PLA-g-MAH was incorporated at 0-10 wt% of the total composite mass by replacing an equivalent proportion of neat PLA, while the wheat straw content was maintained at 50 wt%. The composites were evaluated through mechanical testing, density and water absorption measurements, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Mechanical properties improved with increasing compatibilizer content and then declined at excessive dosages. At 7 wt% PLA-g-MAH, tensile and impact strengths reached 17.24 MPa and 15.56 kJ/m
