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

Melt electrospinning writing is a new and promising method for fabricating micro/nanofibers, which has shown great prospects in the biomedical fields such as 3D printing of porous scaffolds. The diameter of the melt electrospinning writing fiber can determine the resolution of the microstructure; thus, the controllability of the fiber diameter is of great significance to the whole fabrication process. In this paper, an orthogonal design experiment (six factors, three levels) was used to explore the impacts of six melt electrospinning parameters (melt temperature, collector speed, tip-to-collector distance, melt flow rate, voltage, and needle gauge) on the fiber diameter. In this experiment, the diameter of fibers obtained with the designed experimental parameters and conditions varied from 10.30 μm to 20.02 μm. The range analysis of orthogonal test results showed that the melt flow rate was the most important factor influencing the diameter of melt electrospinning writing fiber, while the voltage was the least influential factor. The variance analysis of orthogonal test results showed that melt temperature, collector velocity, tip-to-collector distance and melt flow rate had a significant influence on the diameter of melt electrospinning writing fiber. On the basis of the first-order regression equation, the fiber diameter of poly-ε-caprolactone can be accurately controlled, thus improving the engineering applications of poly-ε-caprolactone.
