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

Many studies show that hierarchical honeycombs have a superior performance compared to regular honeycombs. However, relevant experimental studies are limited due to the fabrication challenges of hierarchical honeycombs featuring complex geometries. In this study, circular-vertex-based hierarchical hexagonal honeycombs (CHHHs) with different hierarchical parameters were fabricated using a polymeric 3D-printing technique, and their quasi-static out-of-plane mechanical behavior was investigated. The CHHHs were constructed by replacing each solid vertex of a regular hexagonal honeycomb (RHH) with a circular vertex. Quasi-static compression tests were conducted on CHHHs, and the effect of the hierarchical parameter on the deformation modes, mechanical properties, and energy absorption characteristics was investigated. The results revealed that both the CHHH and RHH specimens experienced cell wall fractures during compression, while the CHHH exhibited enhanced damage resistance, compressive strength, and specific energy absorption (SEA) compared to RHH. This study contributes to understanding the effect of circular-vertex-based hierarchy on the out-of-plane mechanical behavior of regular honeycombs.
