Bioprinting of radiopaque constructs for tissue engineering and understanding degradation behavior by use of Micro-CT.
Article in Bioactive materials, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Bioprinting has emerged as a potential technique to fabricate tissue engineering constructs and in vitro models directly using living cells as a raw material for fabrication, conforming to the heterogeneity and architectural complexity of the tissues. In several of tissue engineering and in vitro disease modelling or surgical planning applications, it is desirable to have radiopaque constructs for monitoring and evaluation. In the present work, enhanced radiopaque constructs are generated by substituting Calcium ions with Barium ions for crosslinking of alginate hydrogels. The constructs are characterized for their structural integrity and followed by cell culture studies to evaluate their biocompatibility. This was followed by the radiopacity evaluation. The radiological images obtained by micro-CT technique was further applied to investigate the degradation behavior of the scaffolds. In conclusion, it is observed that barium crosslinking can provide a convenient means to obtain radiopaque constructs with potential for multi-faceted applications.
