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
Aluminum alloy and its composites have versatile applications and can be produced via a cost-effective stir casting technique. However, stir casting is faced with some challenges including segregation, occurrence of intermetallic phases, agglomeration, and inducement of residual stress. In view of minimizing these defects, casting should be done applying optimal parameters that will yield the desired outcome. The present study focused on the optimization of stirring parameters of temperature, speed, and time in the production of Al 6061/glass powder composite. Evaluated responses are tensile strength, compressive strength, impact strength, and hardness. The results showed that the process parameters had statistical significance on all properties at 95 % confidence level. Combined interactions of these parameters also presented significant effects on the property responses. Optimum setting for process factors as regards tensile strength were evaluated to be 600 °C, 400 rpm, and 30 min for temperature, speed, and time, respectively. For compressive strength, it is 600 °C, 500 rpm, and 30 min; for hardness, the optimum settings are 700 °C, 400 rpm, and 30 min, while in the case of impact strength, the optimum settings are 500 °C, 400 rpm, and 30 min respectively. Optimization of the combined characteristics was obtained at the optimum conditions of 500 °C, 400 rpm, and 30 min for stirring temperature, speed, and time. Moreso, the significance of the parameters on the composite in descending order is temperature, time, and speed.
