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

This work investigates the fabrication of Ti6Al4V composites manufactured by powder metallurgy through pressureless infiltration. Porous Ti6Al4V alloy compacts with different particle sizes were fabricated by sintering and then, liquid Ag was infiltrated to obtain composites. Computed microtomography was used to analyze the samples before and after infiltration. Numerical flow simulations and dilatometry tests evaluated the kinetics of Ag infiltration into porous Ti6Al4V compacts. Microstructure was observed by SEM and mechanical strength was evaluated by compression tests. Results showed that the pore properties play a crucial role in the infiltration timing and the distribution of the Ag's liquid. In particular, large pores allowed the infiltration to start a few °C degrees earlier than samples with smaller pores. Three-dimensional images after infiltration showed that most of the pores were filled and the remaining ones were isolated. The resulting microstructure was composed of Ti
