Effect of the Infill Density on 3D-Printed Geometrically Graded Impact Attenuators.
Article in Polymers, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Three-dimensional printing is widely becoming prevalent in various industries, including the automotive sector. As this technology advances, critical structures subjected to impact loads may also be produced using additive manufacturing. A key parameter in this technique is the infill density of the printed geometry, which directly affects mechanical properties such as strength, stiffness, and ductility. Functionally graded layouts present themselves as one of the best techniques to design effective impact attenuators. The present work combines these techniques and parameters to evaluate the behaviour of geometrically graded impact attenuators produced through additive manufacturing, with different infill densities for polylactic acid (PLA) and polycarbonate (PC) materials. The results obtained show an increase in the mechanical strength for both materials and all the infill densities when compared to reference quasi-static results.
