Theoretical Investigation of Photon Interaction and X-Ray Imaging Performance of PEEK-Based Composites for Medical Implants.
Article in Polymers, 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
Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a high-performance, biocompatible polymer with remarkable mechanical properties, making it a promising candidate for medical implants. However, its intrinsic radiolucency poses a challenge for post-operative imaging. This study investigates the photon shielding capabilities and X-ray imaging qualities of pure PEEK and its composites with barium sulfate (BaSO
