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

Electrical discharge machining (EDM) generates toxic emissions and hazardous waste, posing significant health risks for operators and environmental concerns. Aligning with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for Good Health & Well-being (SDG 3) and Responsible Consumption & Production (SDG 12), it is crucial to optimize EDM to reduce its environmental impact. This study introduces a Decision Support System (DSS) that uses a new approach to prospect theory based on exponential-logarithmic single-valued neutrosophic sets (± Log-SVNS) to find the best EDM parameters for "green" die-sinking EDM. Taguchi orthogonal array has been used to design the EDM experiments considering different levels of following process parameters: peak current, pulse duration, dielectric level, and flushing pressure. Log-SVNS structures expert evaluations on output responses which includes process time, tool wear ratio, energy consumption, aerosol concentration, and dielectric usage, and aggregates them with hybrid averaging and geometric operators. The proposed method employs prospect theory to finally determine the optimal machining parameters. The best performance is seen when the peak current is 2 A, the pulse duration is 520 µs, the dielectric level is 80 mm, and the flushing pressure is 0.5 kg/cm². This outcome is based on the µLog-SVNS hybrid average TODIM (TOmada de Decisao Interativa Multicriterio) method. The hybrid geometric TODIM method finds that experiment number 3 is the best and the parameters are as follows: peak current of 2 A, pulse duration of 261 µs, dielectric level of 60 mm, and flushing pressure of 0.7 kg/cm². Sensitivity analysis confirms the robustness of these results, and comparative analysis with existing methods demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed method in establishing optimal parameters.
