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

The aim of this study was to explore an innovative method to improve the osteogenic ability of porous titanium. We used gelatin (Gel) and nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA) to construct micro-scaffolds within the pores of porous titanium alloy. We compared three groups: control, Gel:nHA = 1:0, and Gel:nHA = 1:1. We assessed cell attachment, cell proliferation, and osteogenic (alkaline phosphatase [ALP] and collagen type 1 [Col-1]) and cytoskeletal (Talin) gene and protein expression in MC3T3-E1 cells. We also evaluated osteogenic abilities in a rabbit calvarial defect model. Our results showed that micro-scaffolds can improve new bone formation both in vitro and in vivo. Between the two micro-scaffold groups, the Gel:nHA = 1:1 group exhibited the most satisfactory results. It had a multi-hierarchical pore structure with a mean pore size of 156±86 μm. The Gel:nHA = 1:1 group exhibited significantly higher gene and protein expression of ALP, Col-1, and Talin. This group also exhibited the most new bone volume during in vivo experiments. The 3D micro-scaffold structure was an effective method of porous titanium modification that not only provided appropriate cell growth conditions but may also be used as a carrier of bioactive factors in the future.
