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
It remains a challenge to achieve satisfactory balance between biodegradability and osteogenic capacity in biosynthetic bone grafts. In this study, we aimed to address this challenge by incorporating mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG) into poly(caprolactone-co-glycolide) (PGA-PCL) at gradient ratios. MBG/PGA-PCL (PGC/M) scaffolds with MBG incorporation ratio at 0, 10%, 25% and 40% (PGC/M0-40) were synthesized using a modified solvent casting-particulate leaching method, and their physiochemical and biological properties were comprehensively evaluated. PGC/M scaffolds exhibited highly perforated porous structure with a large-pore size of 300-450 μm, with ordered MBGs of around 6.0 nm mesopores size uniformly dispersed. The increase in MBG incorporation ratio significantly improved the scaffold surface hydrophilicity, apatite-formation ability and pH stability, increased the weight loss rate while insignificantly influenced the molecular chains degradation of PGA-PCL component, and facilitated the attachment, spreading, viability and proliferation of rat bone marrow stromal cells (rBMSCs) on scaffolds. Moreover, rBMSCs cultured on PGC/M10-40 scaffolds demonstrated enhanced ALP activity and osteogenesis-related gene expression in a MBG dose-dependent manner as compared with those cultured on PGC/M0 scaffolds. When implanted to the rat cranial bone defect, PGC/M25 and PGC/M40 scaffolds induced significantly better bone repair as compared to PGC/M0 and PGC/M10 scaffolds. Besides, the biodegradability of PGC/M scaffolds correlated with the MBG incorporation ratio. These data suggested this novel PGC/M scaffolds as promising bone repair biomaterial with highly tunable hydrophilicity, bioactivity, cytocompatibility, osteogenic activity as well as biodegradability.
