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

Today, Fe-Al intermetallic compounds are receiving a great interest from the mechanical, aerospace, and biomedical industries. A novel production process for Fe-Al intermetallic powders based on the generation of metallic tapes by rapid solidification and disintegration by water vapor was proposed. In this research work, a comparison is made between the energy required to manufacture of Fe-Al powder using the aforementioned process and one of the most commonly used manufacturing processes within the industry such as mechanical alloying. In addition, some other benefits of the proposed manufacturing process are analyzed. To carry out this comparison, the theoretical equations that take into account the most important variables involved during the process such as the type of material and hardness, the initial and final particle size, the grinding stages and the heating of the treatment powder were considered. In the case of calculating the energy required for the new proposed process, the two main stages were considered such as (1) the production of FeAl metal tape and (2) the subsequent transformation of the tape into powder by means of injection water vapor. For the first stage, the CASTRIP process is considered, and for the second stage, the energy required for the generation steam. Although the calculations may have certain limitations, it is obvious that the energy required to Fe-Al powder production using the new process is much lower than that required by mechanical alloying, resulting in at least three orders of magnitude lower (2.75 × 10 Graphic abstract:
