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

Despite the growing use of powder bed fusion laser beam in metals (PBF-LB/M) to fabricate NiTi shape memory alloys, the interplay between process parameters and functional performance remains poorly understood, hindered by small-scale studies that fail to capture parametric complexity. This work presents a comprehensive analysis of over 200 NiTi samples, systematically varying laser power and scanning speed to uncover their effects on phase transformation behaviour. It is demonstrated that energy density, a widely assumed predictor, inadequately explains transformation temperatures, which instead exhibit a nonlinear dependence on both laser power and scanning speed, yet align linearly with scanning speed at fixed power. These findings challenge conventional assumptions and provide a robust framework for tuning PBF-LB/M parameters to achieve consistent, application-ready NiTi components, advancing the reliability of shape memory alloys in critical engineering and biomedical applications.
