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 paper presents the detailed comparisons of solute macro-segregation pictures predicted by different meso-macroscopic simulations, based on the single-domain enthalpy-porosity approach coupled with distinct models of flow resistance in the two-phase zone. In the first, the whole zone is treated as a Darcy's porous medium (EP model); in the other two, the columnar and equiaxed grain structures are distinguished using either the coherency point (EP-CP model) approach or by tracking a virtual surface of columnar dendrite tips (EP-FT model). The simplified 2D model of a solidifying cast in a centrifuge is proposed, and calculations are performed for the Pb-48wt. % Sn cast at various hypergravity levels and rotation angles. It is shown, in the example of Sn-10wt. % Pb alloy, that the predicted macro-segregation strongly depends on the mesoscopic model used, and the EP-FT simulation (validated with the AFRODITE benchmark) provides the most realistic solute inhomogeneity pictures. The EP-FT model is further used to investigate the impact of the hyper-gravity level and the cooling direction on the compositional nonuniformity developing in centrifuge casting. The hyper-gravity level visibly impacts the macro-segregation extent. The region of almost uniform solute distribution in the slurry zone rises with the increased effective gravity, though the solute channeling is more severe for higher gravity and rotation angles. A-channeling and V-channeling were observed for angles between the gravity vector and cooling direction lower than 120° and higher than 120°, respectively.
