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 effect of ultrasonic vibration on the fluidity and microstructure of cast aluminum alloys (AlSi9 and AlSi18 alloys) with different solidification characteristics was investigated. The results show that ultrasonic vibration can affect the fluidity of alloys in both solidification and hydrodynamics aspects. For AlSi18 alloy without dendrite growing solidification characteristics, the microstructure is almost not influenced by ultrasonic vibration, and the influence of ultrasonic vibration on its fluidity is mainly in hydrodynamics aspects. That is, appropriate ultrasonic vibration can improve fluidity by reducing the flow resistance of the melt, but when the vibration intensity is high enough to induce turbulence in the melt, the turbulence will increase the flow resistance greatly and decrease fluidity. However, for AlSi9 alloy, which obviously has dendrite growing solidification characteristics, ultrasonic vibration can influence solidification by breaking the growing α (Al) dendrite, consequently refining the solidification microstructure. Ultrasonic vibration could then improve the fluidity of AlSi9 alloy not only from the hydrodynamics aspect but also by breaking the dendrite network in the mushy zone to decrease flow resistance.
