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

The microstructure of bone consists of nano-hydroxyapatite (nano-HA) crystals aligned within the interspaces of collagen fibrils. To emulate this unique microstructure of bone, this work applied two biomimetic techniques to obtain bone-like microstructures in vitro, that is, combining the construction of collagen liquid crystal hydrogel (CLCH) with the application of a polymer-induced liquid precursor (PILP) mineralization process. Upon the elevation of pH, the collagen macromolecules within the collagen liquid crystal (CLC) were activated to self-assemble into CLCH, whose fibrils packed into a long and dense fiber bundle in high orientation, emulating the dense-packed matrix of bone. We demonstrated that the fibrillar mineralization of CLCH, leading to a bone-like nanostructured inorganic material part, can be achieved using the PILP crystallization process to pre-mineralize the dense collagen substrates of CLCH with CaCO
