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

The electron beam powder bed fusion (EB-PBF) process is typically carried out using a layer thickness between 50 and 100 μm with the accelerating voltage of 60 kV for the electron beam. This configuration ensures forming accuracy but limits building efficiency. The augmentation of the accelerating voltage enlarges the molten pool due to the rise in penetrability, suggesting that a higher layer thickness can be used. Therefore, the effects of layer thickness and accelerating voltage were investigated simultaneously in this study to explore the feasibility of efficiency improvement. Ti6Al4V was fabricated by EB-PBF using layer thicknesses of 200 and 300 μm. Two accelerating voltage values of 60 and 90 kV were used to study their effects under expanded layer thickness. The results reveal that dense parts with the ultimate tensile strength higher than 950 MPa and elongation higher than 9.5% could be fabricated even if the layer thickness reached 300 μm, resulting in a building rate of up to 30 mm
