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

For hydrogel injection applications, it is important to improve the strength and biostability of the hydrogel as well as its injectability to pass easily through the needle. Making gel microspheres is one approach to achieve these improvements. Granulization of a bulk hydrogel is a common procedure used to form microsized particles; however, the nonuniform size and shape cause an uneven force during injection, damaging the surrounding tissue and causing pain to the patients. In this study, injectable hyaluronic acid (HA)-based hybrid hydrogel microspheres were fabricated using a water-in-oil emulsion process. The injectability was significantly enhanced because of the relatively uniform size and spherical shape of the hydrogel formulates. In addition, the biostability and mechanical strength were also increased owing to the increased cross-linking density compared with that of conventionally fabricated gel microparticles. This tendency was further improved after in situ calcium phosphate precipitation. Our findings demonstrate the great potential of HA-based hydrogel microspheres for various clinical demands requiring injectable biomaterials.
