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

Processing properties of PMMA bone cements can be divided into four phases: 1. mixing, 2. waiting, 3. processing and 4. curing. Each of these phases is subject to several external influencing factors, such as temperature and humidity, which must be considered during application. Instructions for use provided by the manufacturers of PMMA bone cements and mixing and application systems contain important information on correct application. The processing properties of PMMA bone cements and possible factors influencing the curing process are of great importance for safe procedures in the operating room. Knowledge of the viscosity and consistency of the PMMA bone cement from the dough phase to complete curing facilitates preparation and application, which in the long term significantly improves the requirements placed on PMMA cements regarding the function and service life of the implant.
