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

Laser additive manufacturing of pure copper (Cu) with complex geometries opens vast opportunities for the development of functional devices in microelectronics and telecommunication. However, laser additive manufacturing of high-resolution pure Cu remains a challenge. Here we report a facile oxide-dispersion-strengthening (ODS) strategy that enables additive manufacturing of Cu with sub-100 μm (~70 μm) resolution by laser powder-bed fusion. This ODS strategy starts with oxygen-assisted gas atomisation to introduce ultrafine Cu
