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

Thermo-mechanical cycling of microelectronic devices creates complex stress-states in Sn-Ag-Cu (SAC) solder balls, leading to Cu₆Sn₅-precipitate coarsening. Two key mechanisms - strain-induced coarsening and Ostwald ripening - are examined separately. Strain-induced coarsening, studied via plastic shear deformation, is more significant in dynamically recrystallised high-strain regions than in lower-strain shear band regions. Ostwald ripening is investigated via in-situ FESEM, and its interplay with strain-enhanced coarsening is analysed in thermo-mechanically cycled solders with varying Bi-contents. Results show that Bi, solved in the β-Sn matrix, delays dynamic recrystallisation and reduces both strain-enhanced coarsening and Ostwald ripening of Cu₆Sn₅. Nonetheless, Cu
