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

A nontoxic and biodegradable polyurethane was prepared, characterized, and evaluated for biomedical applications. Stretchable, biodegradable, and biocompatible polyurethanes (LPH) based on L-lysine diisocyanate (LDI) with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and polyhydroxyalkanoates(PHA) of different molar ratios were synthesized. The chemical and physical characteristics of the LPH films are tunable, enabling the design of mechanically performance, hydrophilic, and biodegradable behavior. The LPH films have a Young's modulus, tensile strength, and elongation at break in the range of 3.07-25.61 MPa, 1.01-9.49 MPa, and 102-998%, respectively. The LPH films demonstrate different responses to a change of temperature from 4 to 37 °C, with the swelling ratio for the same sample at equilibrium varying from 184% to 151%. In vitro degradation tests show the same LPH film has completely different degradation morphologies in pH of 3, 7.4, and 11 phosphate buffered solution (PBS). In vitro cell tests show feasibility that some of the LPH films are suitable for culturing rat bone marrow stem cells (rBMSCs), for future soft-tissue regeneration. The results demonstrate the feasibility of the LPH scaffolds for many biomedical applications.
