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

In tissue engineering, scaffolds can be obtained by means of 3D printing. Different structures are used in order to reduce the stiffness of the solid material. The present article analyzes the mechanical behavior of octet-truss microstructures. Three different octet structures with strut radii of 0.4, 0.5, and 0.6 mm were studied. The theoretical relative densities corresponding to these structures were 34.7%, 48.3%, and 61.8%, respectively. Two different values for the ratio of height (H) to width (W) were considered, H/W = 2 and H/W = 4. Several specimens of each structure were printed, which had the shape of a square base prism. Compression tests were performed and the elasticity modulus (E) of the octet-truss lattice-structured material was determined, both, experimentally and by means of Finite Element Methods (FEM). The greater the strut radius, the higher the modulus of elasticity and the compressive strength. Better agreement was found between the experimental and the simulated modulus of elasticity results for H/W = 4 than for H/W = 2. The octet-truss lattice can be considered to be a promising structure for printing in the field of tissue engineering.
