Advances in Additive Manufacturing of Composites via Friction Stir Deposition.
Review in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 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
The growing demand for large, lightweight, heat-resistant, and multifunctional aerospace structures has raised the requirements for metal matrix composites in terms of defect minimization, performance enhancement, and near-net-shape manufacturing. Additive friction stir deposition of composites enables feedstock delivery, reinforcement mixing, and layer-by-layer consolidation in a thermoplastic state below the melting point of the matrix, thereby mitigating porosity, hot cracking, elemental segregation, reinforcement degradation, and excessive interfacial reactions commonly encountered in fusion-based additive manufacturing. This review summarizes recent advances in the application of this technology to the fabrication of metal matrix composites, elucidates the mechanisms of material flow, interlayer bonding, microstructural evolution, and defect formation during deposition, and discusses the effects of tool design, process parameters, and reinforcement characteristics on interfacial bonding, microstructure control, and mechanical properties. Remaining challenges include the uniform delivery and quantitative control of reinforcements, characterization of interfacial bonding and load transfer, forming stability of complex components, and evaluation of in-service performance; accordingly, thermo-mechanical-flow multiphysics models, multisensor closed-loop control systems, and unified quality-assessment methods should be developed to promote the engineering application of large-scale, multimaterial graded aerospace components.
