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

Cationic gas-permeable molds fabricated via sol-gel polymerization undergo cationic polymerization using epoxide, resulting in gas permeability owing to their cross-linked structures. By applying this cationic gas-permeable mold to nano-injection molding, which is used for the mass production of resins, nano-protrusion structures with a height of approximately 300 nm and a pitch of approximately 400 nm were produced. The molding defects caused by gas entrapment in the air and cavities when using conventional gas-impermeable metal molds were improved, and the cationic gas-permeable mold could be continuously fabricated for 3000 shots under non-vacuum conditions. The results of the mechanical evaluations showed improved thermal stability and Martens hardness, which is expected to lead to the advanced production of resin nano-structures. Furthermore, the surface roughness of the nano-protrusion structures fabricated using injection molding improved the water contact angle by approximately 46°, contributing to the development of various hydrophobic materials in the future.
