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 3D printing method based on digital light processing (DLP) technology can transform liquid resin materials into complex 3D models. However, due to the limitations of digital micromirror device (DMD) specifications, the normal DLP 3D printing method (NDPM) cannot simultaneously process large-size and small-feature parts. Therefore, a scalable DLP 3D printing method (SDPM) was proposed. Different printing resolutions for a part were designed by changing the distance between the projector and the molding liquid level. A scalable DLP printer was built to realize the printing resolution requirements at different sizes. A series of experiments were performed. Firstly, the orthogonal experimental method was used, and the minimum and maximum projection distances were obtained as 20.5 cm and 30.5 cm, respectively. Accordingly, the layer thickness, exposure time, and waiting leveling time were 0.08 mm, 3 s, and 6 s and 0.08 mm, 7 s, and 10 s. Secondly, single-layer column feature printing was finished, which was shown to have two minimum printing resolutions of 101 μm and 157 μm at a projection distance of 20.5 cm and 30.5 cm. Thirdly, a shape accuracy test was conducted by using the SDPM. Compared with the NDPM, the shape accuracy of the small-feature round, diamond, and square parts was improved by 49%, 42%, and 2%, respectively. This study verified that the SDPM can build models with features demonstrating high local shape accuracy.
