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

TC4 alloy coatings were fabricated on a titanium alloy substrate using laser cladding. The influence of laser power ranging from 1000 W to 2200 W on the microhardness, wear resistance, and electrochemical corrosion behavior in 3.5% NaCl solution was systematically investigated. Results demonstrate that the TC4 coating exhibited a 35.17% enhancement in microhardness compared to the substrate, with an average value reaching 500 HV. As the laser power increased from 1000 W to 2200 W, the maximum wear depth progressively decreased, indicating significantly improved wear resistance, with fatigue wear being identified as the dominant mechanism. The coating prepared at 1400 W showed the best corrosion performance, displaying the highest self-corrosion potential of -0.110 V, the lowest corrosion current density of 0.125 μA·cm
