Utilizing Simulation Software to Develop Injection Molding Process Windows with High-Impact Polystyrene.
Article in Polymers, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
While design groups have utilized the abilities of injection molding simulation software, its use is often underutilized by process engineers. To expand the application of simulation software to manufacturing groups, this work focuses on developing a methodology to construct injection molding process windows through the predictions of simulation software. The methodology was developed by testing combinations of controllable process variables in the filling and packing stage of the injection molding process with high-impact polystyrene. Using this method, the process window can be tailored to a manufacturer's desired product performance measures as well as target a specific defect they are facing. The process windows developed were experimentally validated displaying a successful combination of controllable process variables in the filling and packing stages which resulted in an acceptable part. Additionally, the process window was able to predict the dimensional shrinkage of a part within 1% of the experimentally produced part. This analysis establishes confidence in the software's ability to aid manufacturing groups to successfully run their operations.
