Supportless Lattice Structure for Additive Manufacturing of Functional Products and the Evaluation of Its Mechanical Property at Variable Strain Rates.
Article in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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 study proposes an innovative design solution based on the design for additive manufacturing (DfAM) and post-process for manufacturing industrial-grade products by reducing additive manufacturing (AM) time and improving production agility. The design of the supportless open cell Sea Urchin lattice structure is analyzed using DfAM for material extrusion (MEX) process to print support free in any direction. The open cell is converted into a global closed cell to entrap secondary foam material. The lattice structure is 3D printed with Polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG) material and is filled with foam using the Hybrid MEX process. Foam-filling improves the lattice structure's energy absorption and crash force efficiency when tested at different strain rates. An industrial case study demonstrates the importance and application of this lightweight and tough design to meet the challenging current and future mass customization market. A consumer-based industrial scenario is chosen wherein an innovative 3D-printed universal puck accommodates different shapes of products across the supply line. The pucks are prone to collisions on the supply line, generating shock loads and hazardous noise. The results show that support-free global closed-cell lattice structures filled with foam improve energy absorption at a high strain rate and enhance the functional requirement of noise reduction during the collision.
