Engineering the mechanical characteristics of regenerated silk fibroin materials: the impact of chemical and physical modification strategies.
Article in Frontiers in chemistry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
In this study, an in-depth exploration was conducted on the mechanical properties of regenerated silk fibroin (RSF) materials through diverse processing modalities, encompassing wet pressing, humidity treatments at varying levels, and the incorporation of plasticizers. Notably, these approaches induced substantial modifications in the mechanical properties of RSF materials. The elastic strength of RSF exhibited a wide range, from 12.6 to 1,644.8 MPa; the ultimate strength spanned from 0.12 to 42.63 MPa, and the maximum elongation at break fluctuated between 0.67% and 614.38%. Additionally, the mechanisms underlying the effects of these distinct treatment methods were meticulously investigated. This fundamental research not only provides crucial insights into the modulation of silk fibroin's mechanical properties but also holds significant promise for broadening its applications in the biomedical engineering domain, particularly in the pivotal fields of bone tissue and tendon regeneration.
