Milling Microchannels in Monel 400 Alloy by Wire EDM: An Experimental Analysis.
Article in Micromachines, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
This paper presents the results of an investigation on the capacity of wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) to produce microchannels in the Nickel-based alloy, Monel 400. The main objective of the current study is to produce microchannels with desired/target geometry and acceptable surface quality. Square cross-sectional microchannels with dimensions of 500 × 500 µm were investigated. Experiments were conducted based on the one-factor-at-a-time approach for the key input WEDM process parameters, namely pulse-on time (TON), pulse-off time (TOFF), average gap voltage (VGAP), wire feed (WF), and dielectric flow rate (FR). Dimensional accuracy, machining speed, surface roughness, surface morphology, microhardness, and microstructure were analyzed to evaluate the microchannels. The minimum errors of 6% and 3% were observed in the width and depth of the microchannels, respectively. Furthermore, microchannels with enhanced surface integrity could be produced exhibiting smooth surface morphology and shallow recast layer (~0-2.55 µm).
