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 hybrid selective laser melting (SLM) technology by laser welding can capture the superiorities of both processes to produce large-scale, high-quality, high-resolution, and complicated-shaped metallic parts. In this work, the SLMed 304 stainless steel, Inconel 718 superalloy, and Ti-6Al-4V alloy sheets were joined by laser welding under various building directions. And then, the microstructure, microhardness, tensile properties, and corrosion resistance of the laser-welded SLMed 304 stainless steel, Inconel 718 superalloy, and Ti-6Al-4V alloy were compared to explore the effect of SLMed microstructural anisotropy and crystal structure. The results showed that phase constitutions were the same between the SLMed and laser-welded joints for the three alloys. But the grain size and dendrite arm spacings in the joints were coarser than those in the SLMed samples. The SLMed microstructural anisotropy resulted in differences in the thermal gradient, grain size, dendrite arm spacing, and tensile properties in the joints under various welding types. Compared with the SLMed counterparts, the laser-welded 304 stainless steel and Inconel 718 joints showed lower microhardness and tensile properties but better corrosion resistance. In contrast, the laser-welded Ti-6Al-4V joints possess a higher microhardness, tensile properties, and corrosion resistance. Therefore, it is feasible to join SLMed parts to manufacture large-scale parts by laser welding.
