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

This study systematically optimised extrusion-printing parameters for polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) using a Design of Experiment (DoE) approach to improve printability and construct fidelity. A five-factor DoE was conducted to evaluate the individual and interactive effects of printhead temperature, printing pressure, printing speed, bed temperature, and cartridge heating time on the dimensional accuracy of printed constructs. The resulting regression model enabled the identification of statistically significant main and interaction effects among processing variables. An optimised parameter set (printhead temperature 145 °C, pressure 150 kPa, speed 15 mm s
