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

Additive manufacturing technologies using extrusion of plastic material (MEX) stand out due to the accessibility of equipment and raw materials (filaments, granular materials), the variety of equipment and materials, low operating costs and the potential for use in non-industrial environments. However, additive manufacturing using extrusion of plastic material (MEX) faces a number of factors that reduce the mechanical characteristics of parts and the productivity of the manufacturing process, preventing the adoption of this manufacturing technology on a large scale. Post-processing is a crucial step in additive manufacturing using plastic extrusion, which has a significant impact on the finished product. In this sense, in this paper, the influence of the annealing heat treatment (temperature, t = 75 °C and duration, d = 180 min) on the mechanical characteristics during three-point bending of the specimens manufactured additively by extrusion of filaments made of PETG and recycled PETG 100 (rPETG 100, where 100 represents the amount of recycled material) is studied using the layer height deposited in one pass, L
