Micro-Arc Oxidation of Ti-45Nb Alloy: Surface Characteristics and Corrosion Behavior for Potential Biomedical Application.
Article in ACS omega, 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
New β titanium alloys such as Ti-45Nb have been investigated for biomedical applications due to their promising mechanical and biocompatible properties. However, studies on micro-arc oxidation applied to Ti-45Nb surfaces are still scarce. This study explores the effect of micro-arc oxidation treatments on Ti-45Nb alloy surfaces using two different acidic electrolytes for anodization. The resulting surfaces were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, contact angle measurements, surface energy analysis, roughness parameters, open-circuit potential, potentiodynamic polarization, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Anodization significantly increased surface roughness, especially with sulfuric acid affecting the Ra parameter and phosphoric acid influencing Rt. Wettability and surface energy improved noticeably with reduced dispersive and increased polar components. The combined acid treatment (H
