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

Ultrasound proves to be an effective technique for intensifying a wide range of processes involving solids and, as such, is often used to improve control over both solids formation and post-treatment stages. The intensifying capabilities of ultrasonic processing are best interpreted in the context of the chemical, transport, and mechanical effects that occur during sonication. This review presents an overview of how ultrasound influences the processing and synthesis of solids across various material classes, contextualized within an ultrasound effect framework. By describing the mechanisms underlying the different effects of ultrasound on the solid synthesis and processing, this review aims to facilitate a deeper understanding of the current literature in the field and to promote more effective utilization of ultrasound technology in solid synthesis and processing.
