Biodegradable PEG-Based Amphiphilic Block Copolymers for Tissue Engineering Applications.
Article in ACS biomaterials science & engineering, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 46 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Biodegradable tissue engineering scaffolds have great potential for delivering cells/therapeutics and supporting tissue formation. Polyesters, the most extensively investigated biodegradable synthetic polymers, are not ideally suited for diverse tissue engineering applications due to limitations associated with their hydrophobicity. This review discusses the design and applications of amphiphilic block copolymer scaffolds integrating hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) blocks with hydrophobic polyesters. Specifically, we highlight how the addition of PEG results in striking changes to the physical properties (swelling, degradation, mechanical, handling) and biological performance (protein & cell adhesion) of the degradable synthetic scaffolds
