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

Several crucial and impactful three-dimensional (3D) printing applications have been developed within a broad range of fields. Among these, revolutionary changes in health care are highly anticipated. The use of 3D printing in medical applications indicates significant promise in terms of medical device personalization, drug delivery, and economical efficiency. However, despite recent significant advances in medicine inspired by 3D printing, scientific challenges and regulatory subtleties remain. This study considers additive technology application in radiotherapy. One of the main requirements for 3D-printed samples' use in radiotherapy is the tissue equivalence of the sample material. In this study, selected parameters of 3D-printed samples made of poly(styrene-butadiene-styrene) (SBS plastic) are obtained, that is, effective atomic number, mass and electron density, and Hounsfield units. The obtained parameters are compared with corresponding values for human tissue and organs. Experimental results demonstrate the tissue equivalency of the considered samples, which can be used in different applications in medical physics and radiotherapy. The obtained results have significant importance for the development, design, and production of samples for medical applications using 3D printing.
