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

In this study, silver-strontium-doped hydroxyapatite (AgSr-HA)/chitosan composite coatings were deposited on a 316L stainless steel (SS) substrate via electrophoretic deposition (EPD). The Taguchi design of experiment (DoE) approach was used to optimize the EPD parameters such as the applied voltage, interelectrode spacing, and deposition time. Furthermore, the concentration of AgSr-HA particles in the suspension was also optimized via the DoE approach. DoE results demonstrated that the "homogeneous" coatings were obtained at the deposition time of 7 min, deposition voltage of 20 V, and at a concentration of 5 g/L AgSr-HA particles in the suspension. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), antibacterial studies, contact angle, and roughness measurements were performed to characterize the optimized coatings. SEM images confirmed the deposition of chitosan/AgSr-HA on the SS substrate. The wettability studies indicated the hydrophilic nature of the chitosan/AgSr-HA composite coatings, which confirmed that the developed coatings are suitable for biomedical applications, e.g., orthopedics. The average surface roughness of the chitosan/AgSr-HA composite coatings was in a suitable range used to attach the bone marrow stromal cells. Chitosan/AgSr-HA composite coatings showed an effective antibacterial effect against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Moreover, the coatings developed apatite crystals on their surface upon immersion in simulated body fluid.
