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

We developed an osseocompatible β-type Ti-28Nb-11Ta-8Zr (TNTZ) alloy that displays the excellent elastic modulus, cellular response, corrosion resistance and antibacterial capability demanded for bone-mimetic materials. The TNTZ alloy exhibited an elastic modulus of 49 GPa, which approximates that of human bones and prevent stress shielding effects. A further anodic oxidation and subsequent post-annealing modification formed a crystalline nanoporous TNTZ oxide layer (NPTNTZO(c)) on the alloy surface, potentially promoting interlocking with the extracellular matrix of bone cells and cell proliferation. Osteoblast viability tests also verified that NPTNTZO(c) enhanced cell growth more significantly than that of flat TNTZ. In addition, potentiodynamic polarization tests in Hanks' balanced salt solution (HBSS) revealed that both TNTZ and NPTNTZO(c) exhibited better corrosion resistance than commercial pure titanium. Finally, NPTNTZO(c) reinforced with silver nanoparticles (NPTNTZO
