Laser-assisted scanning electrochemical machining of Ti-6Al-4 V for localized patterning.
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
Titanium alloys are widely used in aerospace and other industries owing to their low density, high strength, and excellent corrosion resistance, yet their machinability remains challenging. Electrochemical machining (ECM) is a promising non-contact approach; however, the formation of a stable passive film on titanium alloys often suppresses anodic dissolution in scanning ECM. In this study, we propose laser-assisted scanning ECM using an electrolyte suction tool, in which nanosecond laser irradiation locally disrupts the passive film and activates electrochemical dissolution. Parametric experiments identified conditions that produced a V-shaped groove along the laser path even when ECM alone was ineffective. The optimized parameters were an applied voltage of 9.0 V, a laser fluence of 0.5 J/cm
