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

A modified biodegradable magnesium alloy (AZ31, 96 wt% Mg, 3 wt% Al, and 1 wt% Zn) with polylactic acid (PLA) nanofibers was obtained by the electrospinning technique. The presence of PLA nanofibers was evidenced using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and using an scanning electronic microscope (SEM) equipped with an energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) module. The degradation behavior of an uncoated Mg alloy and a Mg alloy coated with PLA was evaluated through hydrogen evolution, pH, and electrochemical measurements in simulated body fluid. Contact angle measurements showed a shift from hydrophilic towards the hydrophobic character of the alloy after its coating with PLA nanofibers. Furthermore, the electrochemical measurement results show that the Mg based alloy coated with PLA inhibits hydrogen evolution, thus being less prone to degradation. The aim of this research is not only to reduce the corrosion rate of Mg alloy and to improve its properties with the help of polylactic acid coating, but also to provide a study to understand the hydrophilic-hydrophobic balance of biodegradable magnesium based on surface energy investigations. Taking into account corrosion rate, wettability, and pH changes, an empiric model of the interaction of Mg alloy with PLA nanofibers is proposed.
