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
Degradable piezoelectric materials possess significant potential for application in the realm of bone tissue regeneration. However, the correlation between cell regulation mechanisms and the dynamic variation caused by material degradation has not been explained, hindering the optimization of material design and its in vivo application. Herein, piezoelectric poly (L-lactic acid) (PLLA) nanofibers with different molecular weights (MW) were fabricated, and the effects of their piezoelectric properties, structural morphology, and material products during degradation on the adhesion and osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were investigated. Our results demonstrated that cell adhesion-mediated piezoelectric stimulation could significantly enhance cell spreading, cell orientation, and upregulate the expression of calmodulin, which further triggers downstream signaling cascade to regulate osteogenic differentiation markers of type I collagen and runt-related transcription factor 2. Additionally, during the degradation of the nanofibers, the piezoelectric properties of PLLA weakened, the fibrous structure gradually diminished, and pH levels in the vicinity decreased, which resulting in reduced osteogenic differentiation capability of MSCs. However, nanofibers with higher MW (280 kDa) have the ability to maintain the fibrous morphology and piezoelectricity for a longer time, which can regulate the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells for more than 4 weeks. These findings have provide a new insight to correlate cell behavior with MW and the biodegradability of piezopolymers, which revealed an active method for cell regulation through material optimization for bone tissue engineering in near future.
