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

A novel sandwich structure of a fractal tree-like lattice (SSFL) is proposed. The geometry characteristics were constructed based on the fractal tree-like patterns found in many biological structures, such as giant water lilies and dragon blood trees. The compressive performance of the proposed structures with different fractal orders was experimentally and numerically investigated. The experimental samples were made by 3D printing technology. Axial compression tests were conducted to study the compressive performance and failure mode of the SSFLs. The results indicated that the new structure was good at multiple bearing and energy absorption. The finite element method (FEM) was performed to investigate the influence of geometry parameters on the compression behaviors of the SSFLs. The findings of this study provide an effective guide for using the fractal method to design lattice structures with a high bearing capacity.
