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

Poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) has attracted a great deal of attention for its use in biomedical materials such as biodegradable vascular scaffolds due to its high biocompatibility. However, its inherent brittleness and inflammatory responses by acidic by-products of PLLA limit its application in biomedical materials. Magnesium hydroxide (MH) has drawn attention as a potential additive since it has a neutralizing effect. Despite the advantages of MH, the MH can be easily agglomerated, resulting in poor dispersion in the polymer matrix. To overcome this problem, oligo-L-lactide-ε-caprolactone (OLCL) as a flexible character was grafted onto the surface of MH nanoparticles due to its acid-neutralizing effect and was added to the PLLA to obtain PLLA/MH composites. The pH neutralization effect of MH was maintained after surface modification. In an in vitro cell experiment, the PLLA/MH composites including OLCL-grafted MH exhibited lower platelet adhesion, cytotoxicity, and inflammatory responses better than those of the control group. Taken together, these results prove that PLLA/MH composites including OLCL-grafted MH show excellent augmented mechanical and biological properties. This technology can be applied to biomedical materials for vascular devices such as biodegradable vascular scaffolds.
