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

A new bioactive glass-based scaffold was developed for local delivery of drugs in case of osteomyelitis. Bioactive glass having a new composition was prepared and converted into porous scaffold. The bioactivity of the resulting scaffold was examined by in vitro acellular method. The scaffolds were loaded with two different drugs, an antibacterial or antifungal drug. The effects of the size of the scaffold, drug concentration, and dissolution medium on drug release were studied. The scaffolds were further coated with a degradable natural polymer, chitosan, to further control the drug release. Both the glass and scaffold were bioactive. The scaffolds released both the drugs for 6 weeks, in vitro. The results indicated that the bigger the size and the higher the drug concentration, the better was the release profile. The scaffolds appeared to be suitable for local delivery of the drugs in cases of osteomyelitis.
