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 use of additive manufacturing technology for the lightweight design of complex lattice structures is becoming increasingly popular, but research on lattice structure design and strength evaluation still relies on the visual comparison of stress distributions and lacks quantitative assessment data. Given this perspective, this study explored the effects of structural parameters (relative density, cell size, and sample size) on the compressive strength of diamond lattice structures prepared by Stereolithography (SLA) and revealed the underlying mechanisms through stress distribution simulations and the calculation of characteristic stress distribution parameters (structural efficiency and stress concentration coefficient). The results showed that a greater relative density can increase structural efficiency, but it hardly affects the stress concentration coefficient, and smaller cell sizes and larger sample sizes increase the stress concentration coefficient without affecting the structural efficiency. Lattice structures with a greater relative density, higher structural efficiency, and a larger stress concentration coefficient exhibit higher compressive strength according to the lattice strength formula, which indicates that lattice strength is determined by the product of structural efficiency, stress concentration coefficient, relative density, and material strength. The relevant conclusions could guide the analysis of lattice stress distribution and the design of lattice structures.
