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
This article presents studies of surface layers produced by electro-spark deposition (ESD) on cast iron using a W-Ni-Co sintered electrode. To minimize the number of required experiments, a two-factor, five-level Hartley experimental design was chosen. The assessment involved observing the effect of voltage and capacitor capacity during the ESD process (on layer thickness and wear of the sample and counter-sample under technically dry friction conditions). Microscopic and tomographic observations were performed to analyze the thickness and structure of the layers. Image analysis methods were employed to examine the cross-section of the layers. ESD diffusion analyses were performed on the produced layer. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) were performed to characterize the microstructure and composition of the coating. In addition, in order to evaluate the performance properties of tungsten coatings, the tribological tests were also conducted on a TRB
