Biomedical Grade Stainless Steel Coating of Polycaffeic Acid via Combined Oxidative and Ultraviolet Light-Assisted Polymerization Process for Bioactive Implant Application.
Article in Polymers, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Stainless steel as a biomedical implant material has been studied in various fields and in various forms, such as vascular stents, bone plates, dental screws, and artificial hip and bone material. In this study, we used polycaffeic acid (PCA), a natural phenolic compound, to coat the surface of medical grade stainless steel to provide added potential medicinal effects by virtue of its inherent anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antifibrosis, antithrombosis, and antihypertensive characteristics. We did this via UV irradiation under an alkaline state to solve the cost and time problems of other existing coating methods. The physicochemical properties of the samples were investigated through field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), contact angle, FTIR, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Surface bioactivity using NIH-3T3 cell lines were observed in vitro. We expect that the proposed methodology may contribute to the field of study of implantable metallic devices.
