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 the extrusion process on the microstructure, corrosion, and mechanical properties of Mg-Zn-Ca-Zr alloy has been investigated. Zn and Ca were both in a solid solution and only the Zr-rich phase was observed in the homogenized and extruded alloys. The Zr-rich phase was obviously refined after extrusion. The corrosion rate of the homogenized alloy decreased by about 25% after extrusion. This is because the refined Zr-rich phase was easier to cover with the deposited corrosion products, which reduced the cathodic reaction activity of the Zr-rich phase. The corrosion rate is similar for the alloys extruded at 320 °C and 350 °C since the size and distribution of the Zr-rich phase were not different in the two conditions. The alloy extruded at 320 °C has a smaller grain size and better comprehensive mechanical properties.
