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

The aim of the study was to assess the mechanical and material properties of porous titanium capsules, produced by 3D printing via the DMLS (Direct Metal Laser Sintering) technique based on their potential application as carriers for anticancer drugs. The study used capsules made from the Ti-6Al-4V alloy, and analyzes the impact of geometric parameters, structural features, and printing angles (0°, 45°, and 90°) on their compressive strength. A total of 36 capsules were tested, 18 of type KTD and 18 of type KTM, each in two loading directions. The surface roughness and damage characteristics resulting from mechanical loading have also been evaluated. Statistical analysis of the results was performed using Student's
