Strength-Ductility Synergy in Biodegradable Mg-Rare Earth Alloy Processed via Multi-Directional Forging.
Article in Journal of functional biomaterials, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
In this study, a biodegradable Mg-Zn-Nd-Gd alloy was processed via multi-directional forging (MDF) to evaluate its microstructural evolution, mechanical performance, and corrosion behavior. Electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) analysis was conducted to evaluate the influence of grain size and texture on mechanical strength and corrosion resistance. The average grain size decreased significantly from 118 ± 5 μm in the homogenized state to 30 ± 10 μm after six MDF passes, primarily driven by discontinuous dynamic recrystallization (DDRX). Remarkably, this magnesium (Mg) alloy exhibited a rare synergistic enhancement in both strength and ductility, with ultimate tensile strength (UTS) increasing by ~59%, yield strength (YS) by ~90%, while elongation improved by ~44% unlike conventional severe plastic deformation (SPD) techniques that often sacrifice ductility for strength. This improvement is attributed to grain refinement, dispersion strengthening from finely distributed Mg
