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

Piezoelectric biomaterials convert mechanical energy into electrical charges, making them promising candidates for bone tissue engineering by restoring and modulating the electrophysiological microenvironment. This review explores the development of piezoelectric biomaterials by focusing on their molecular origins, particularly dipoles, and how their type, source, and spatial arrangement influence macroscopic electromechanical coupling. Beyond intrinsic origins, the concept of pseudo-piezoelectricity driven by extrinsic factors is introduced to highlight alternative approaches for piezoelectric biomaterial design. Techniques to engineer dipoles and modulate piezoelectric properties for the regulation of osteogenesis are discussed. Particular attention is given to the correlation between piezoelectricity and osteogenesis at distinct phases of bone regeneration. Finally, current challenges in molecular understanding and biofabrication of piezoelectric bone scaffolds are highlighted, along with potential future research directions.
