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, tantalum coatings are deposited by a plasma spraying method aiming at enhancing the biocompatibility of the titanium implant. Tantalum oxide coatings are gained through the thermal oxidation of tantalum coatings at different temperatures for photothermal therapy. The effect of thermal oxidation on the morphology, composition, and structure of tantalum coatings has been studied. The UV-VIS-NIR spectra results, cancer therapy effect in vitro, and photothermal conversion properties among the tantalum oxide coatings under varied thermal treatment conditions are compared comprehensively. It has been proven that the tantalum coating treated at 200 °C exhibits the most intense NIR adsorption, the highest photothermal conversion effect, and the most excellent photothermal ablation effect in vitro. The results reveal that incomplete oxidation at a low temperature leads to the formation of oxygen vacancies, which narrow the band gap; this promotes its photothermal conversion ability.
