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

Amorphous alloy (AA) is a high-performance metal material generally with significantly excellent mechanical and corrosion resistance properties and thus is considered as a desirable material selection for micro-scale articles. However, the microfabrication of AA still faces a variety of technical challenges mainly because the materials are too hard to process and easily lose their original properties, although at moderately high temperatures. In this study, jet-electrolyte electrochemical machining (Jet-ECM) was proposed to microfabricate the Zr-based AA because it is a low-temperature material-removal process based on the anode dissolution mechanism. The electrochemical dissolution characteristics and material removal mechanism of AA were investigated, and then the optimal process parameters were achieved based on the evaluation of the surface morphologies, surface roughness, geometrical profile, and machining accuracy of the machined micro-dimples. Finally, the feasibility was further studied by using Jet-ECM to fabricate arrayed micro-dimples using the optimized parameters. It was found that Jet-ECM can successfully microfabricate mirror-like surface AA arrayed precision micro-dimples with significantly high dimensional accuracy and geometrical consistency. Jet-ECM is a promisingly advantageous microfabrication process for the hard-to-machine AA.
