Biomimetic Polyurethanes in Tissue Engineering.
Review in Biomimetics (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Inspiration from nature is a promising tool for the design of new polymeric biomaterials, especially for frontier technological areas such as tissue engineering. In tissue engineering, polyurethane-based implants have gained considerable attention, as they are materials that can be designed to meet the requirements imposed by their final applications. The choice of their building blocks (which are used in the synthesis as macrodiols, diisocyanates, and chain extenders) can be implemented to obtain biomimetic structures that can mimic native tissue in terms of mechanical, morphological, and surface properties. In recent years, due to their excellent chemical stability, biocompatibility, and low cytotoxicity, polyurethanes have been widely used in biomedical applications. Biomimetic materials, with their inherent nature of mimicking natural materials, are possible thanks to recent advances in manufacturing technology. The aim of this review is to provide a critical overview of relevant promising studies on polyurethane scaffolds, including those based on non-isocyanate polyurethanes, for the regeneration of selected soft (cardiac muscle, blood vessels, skeletal muscle) and hard (bone tissue) tissues.
