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
Laser welding of 6061 aluminum alloy often results in coarse microstructures and inferior corrosion resistance due to rapid solidification. This study introduces ultrasonic vibration as an auxiliary technique to address these limitations. The paper systematically investigates the influence of laser weld ultrasonic assistance on the microstructure and corrosion behavior of a 6061-T6 aluminum alloy welded joint. The results demonstrate that ultrasonic assistance refined the grain structure and reduced the corrosion current density by 19.1% compared to conventional laser welding, achieving 73.6% of the base metal's corrosion resistance. The enhancement is attributed to ultrasonic-induced acoustic streaming and cavitation, which promote equiaxed grain formation and impede corrosive penetration. The enhancement is attributed to ultrasonic-induced acoustic streaming and cavitation, which promote equiaxed grain formation and impede corrosive penetration. Under the ultrasonic effect, the number of dimples in the weld fracture increased and the depth was significant, which enhanced the tensile strength of the 6061 Aluminum alloy weld. This work provides a reliable and efficient strategy for producing high-performance aluminum alloy welded structures in industrial applications.
