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

Increasing power densities in electronic systems require efficient passive thermal-management solutions. This study numerically compares five DMLS-compatible AlSi10Mg heat-sink architectures: perforated planar-fin, curved radial-fin, Schwarz P, BCC diamond and gyroid designs. Conjugate heat-transfer simulations incorporating conduction, natural convection and surface radiation were performed under an identical 18 W thermal load. Performance was evaluated using surface temperature, thermal resistance, temperature uniformity and convective-radiative heat dissipation. The gyroid achieved the lowest average surface temperature (82.02 °C) and combined thermal resistance (3.30 °C W
