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

Atomic/molecular layer deposition (ALD/MLD) is ideally suited for addressing the challenges faced by the new generation biomedical technologies through surface and interface modification with organic-inorganic hybrid coatings, which are emerging as an alternative to inorganic coatings. In this study, we present a feasible strategy for modifying the surface of magnesium alloy (AZ31) screw-like substrates with titanium-based hybrid coatings, using titanium tetraisopropoxide as the metal-bearing precursor, and a simple aliphatic bi-functional alcohol, such as ethylene glycol, as the organic precursor. Results demonstrated that the titanium-based hybrid coating was evenly distributed without obvious defects on the AZ31 screw-like substrates while providing physical protection. In addition, the cytocompatibility of the titanium-based hybrid coating was validated through the cytotoxicity assay, revealing its potential for future biomedical applications.
