[Chemical and physical properties of PMMA bone cements].
Review in Orthopadie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
PMMA-based bone cements are used for anchoring artificial joints. The cements are offered as two-component systems. During mixing, a liquid paste is formed by free-radical polymerization, which completely hardens into a solid cement matrix as polymerization progresses with an increase in viscosity. Polymerization from MMA to PMMA is an exothermic process, energy is released in the form of heat. After fixation of the prosthesis and curing of the cement, the cement fills the space between the prosthesis and the bone. With the filler PMMA, a strong force-locking and interlocking mechanical bond is created. The essential properties of PMMA cements are dictated by the powder component. In vivo, the hard and brittle bone cements absorb body fluids and become more elastic and softer. The properties of various PMMA bone cements differ significantly, although the chemical acrylate base is identical.
