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

Electrohydrodynamic (EHD) printing is a promising micro-nano manufacturing technology. However, the EHD printing process is susceptible to interferences like charge repulsion, electric field, airflow, and platform motion, leading to unstable jetting and nonuniform deposition morphology. In this paper, a double close-loop fuzzy control method based on jet image recognition and micro-current measurement was designed to monitor and control the EHD printing process. A closed-loop control based on the fuzzy control algorithm has been designed to monitor the EHD printing system by taking the feedback information from micro-current and jet image. The experimental results show that the closed-loop control significantly improved the uniformity and stability of the fiber deposition. The volatility percentage of the current decreased from 34% to 12%, the fluctuation range of the fiber diameter was reduced from 35 μm to 15 μm, and the volatility percentage of the fiber spacing decreased from 29% to 9.5%. Additionally, the closed-loop control accelerated the response speed of jet mode conversion. Ineffective deposition of printing jet on the collection plate was shortened from 5 s to 2.2 s. This feedback control optimises the printing quality of micro-nano structures, promoting the advancement of high-resolution additive manufacturing applications.
