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

Drilling is a widely employed technique in machining processes, crucial for efficient material removal. However, when applied to living tissues, its invasiveness must be carefully considered. This study investigates drilling processes on polyurethane foam blocks mimicking human bone mechanical properties. Various drill bit types (118° twist, 135° twist, spherical, and conical), drilling speeds (1000-1600 rpm), and feed rates (20-80 mm/min) were examined to assess temperature elevation during drilling. The Taguchi method facilitated systematic experiment design and optimization. Signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio and analysis of variance (ANOVA) identified significant drilling parameters affecting temperature rise. Validation was conducted through confirmation testing. Results indicate that standard twist drill bits with smaller point angles, lower drilling speeds, and higher feed rates effectively minimize temperature elevation during drilling.
