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

Laser-screen targets suffer from prolonged response time, and printed-circuit-board (PCB) targets induce substantial kinetic energy loss of fragments upon penetration. To mitigate these technical limitations, this study develops a novel screen-printed velocity measurement film (VMF) characterized by a fast response time and low kinetic energy loss. The proposed VMF consists of silver conductive grids and a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate, with an ultra-thin overall thickness of 0.175 mm and identical width and spacing of 0.8 mm for all silver strips. This work comprehensively elaborates the film fabrication procedure and validates its practical engineering performance through live-fire fragment penetration experiments. Experimental results demonstrate that the VMF achieves an average response time of 0.14 μs under metallic fragment impact, with average fragment kinetic energy losses of 1.32 J and 2.09 J when penetrating the first and second VMF layers, respectively. Owing to its rapid transient response and minimal interference with fragment flight trajectories, the designed VMF effectively improves the precision of fragment velocity measurement, possessing great application potential for field blast-testing scenarios.
