Controlled Growth Factor Release in 3D-Printed Hydrogels.
Article in Advanced healthcare materials, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 30 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
Growth factors (GFs) are critical components in governing cell fate during tissue regeneration. Their controlled delivery is challenging due to rapid turnover rates in vivo. Functionalized hydrogels, such as heparin-based hydrogels, have demonstrated great potential in regulating GF release. While the retention effects of various concentrations and molecular weights of heparin have been investigated, the role of geometry is unknown. In this work, 3D printing is used to fabricate GF-embedded heparin-based hydrogels with arbitrarily complex geometry (i.e., teabag, flower shapes). Simplified cylindrical core-shell structures with varied shell thickness are printed, and the rates of GF release are measured over the course of 28 days. Increasing the shell layers' thickness decreases the rate of GF release. Additionally, a mathematical model is developed, which is found capable of accurately predicting GF release kinetics in hydrogels with shell layers greater than 0.5 mm thick (R
