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

Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) remains the material of choice for denture base fabrication; however, its limited mechanical durability and susceptibility to microbial colonization continue to compromise long-term clinical performance. This study aimed to engineer a multifunctional PMMA denture base composite through hybrid reinforcement with hemp fiber (HF), silk fibroin (SF), and phytocannabinoid-rich fractions (Frac1-Frac4) and to comprehensively evaluate its mechanical, structural, antimicrobial, and cytocompatibility properties. Twenty experimental groups were fabricated, including conventional PMMA, PMMA/HF, PMMA/SF, and hybrid PMMA/HF/SF systems with or without 1 wt% phytocannabinoid fractions. Flexural strength, elastic modulus, Charpy impact strength, and Vickers hardness were determined according to standardized protocols. Structural characterization was performed using ATR-FTIR, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Bacterial metabolic viability of
