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

Selective laser melting was recently introduced to fabricate complex parts that are likely to contain overhangs. Process parameters, scanning strategies, support structures, and fast prediction techniques are being frequently studied, but little information about overhang forming direction has been reported. In this study, the effects of overhang forming direction in the working plane on temperature evolution and distortion processes during selective laser melting of Ti-6Al-4V alloy were examined by means of numerical simulation and experimental verification. We found that forming from different directions can lead to significant differences in the early stage of the overhang building process, which were verified by both the simulations and the experiment. Some analyses were performed when enough layers had been built and suggestions are also given.
