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

Despite the dynamic development of additive manufacturing technologies, including selective laser sintering (SLS), there is still limited information on the impact of key factors in printing strategy, on the properties of three-dimensional (3D) printed parts. Such factors, such as the orientation of printed layers toward the powder bed or elements target dimensions, seem to be particularly important, from both a mechanical and a structural point of view. Besides, the scientific articles mainly focus on the analysis of one type of loading condition in the samples, that is, the uniaxial tensile test, which were printed on industrial SLS printers. This is a considerable limitation because very often not only tensile forces but also compressive forces act on the structural elements. Therefore, this study aimed at evaluating the influence of desktop SLS printed parts' orientation and diameter on their structural and mechanical parameters. The mechanical properties of samples printed from PA12 powder on the desktop SLS 3D printer were tested in uniaxial tensile and compression tests, as well as structural properties were investigated. For the purposes of this article, 5 angular orientations of the samples in relation to the powder bed and three diameters of cylindrical samples were analyzed. The research has shown that in the case of samples subjected to tensile load, the printing strategy is important, and the best mechanical parameters are obtained for parts printed at an angle of 0°, that is, in the powder bed's plane. The highest values of mechanical parameters were obtained for a part oriented at an angle of 0°. In the case of the uniaxial compression test and structural parameters, the parts orientation turned out to be an insignificant factor affecting the tested parameters. However, the diameter of printed elements was proven to have a significant influence; the best geometric and dimensional representation was observed for parts biggest in size.
