Osteoclast-like multinucleated giant cells reinforce polycaprolactone grafts.
Article in Frontiers in immunology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Successful application of advanced engineered materials in osteoplasty requires a biological understanding of the recipient reaction. The immune system acts like a double-edged sword by maintaining targeted tissue and rejecting grafts. Nevertheless, even for promising graft materials such as polycaprolactone, insights on contact with immune cells have been restricted due to lacking quantitative assays. Here, we show that polycaprolactone graft sites after cranioplasty are dominated by an immature type of multinucleated giant cells, probably derived from transmigrating peripheral monocytes. The cells interact with the polycaprolactone through extensive pseudopodia formation and localized polymer dissolution. Dynamic mechanical analysis revealed osteoclast-like cells, derived
