Effect of cryogenic treatment on coated and uncoated carbide inserts during turning and facing of alloy steel using Taguchi method.
Article in Scientific reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The manufacturing sector is under intense pressure to improve product quality and productivity while reducing production costs due to the rising cost of complex products. The performance of the cutting tool was much improved after the carbide inserts were coated with CVD. As it is customary in the industry, ISO P-20 coated insert grades were utilized for the studies. Cryogenic treatment was applied to the carbide inserts by bringing the temperature down to -186 °C. Frozen tungsten carbide inserts have a longer lifespan, according to the research. In order to determine the impact of cryogenic treatment on the toughness and tool life of coated and uncoated carbide inserts used to turn alloy steel, we utilised the Taguchi technique to consider both technical and economic aspects. The efficiency was tested using Taguchi orthogonal array L16, taking into account feed rate, cutting speed, insert coating, and tool type. While turning continuously, the effect of cutting speed was 18.01% and when facing intermittently, it was 9.45%. This was achieved using inserts coated with a sandwich layer of Al
