3D-Printed Poly(lactic acid)/Poly(ethylene glycol) Scaffolds with Shape-Memory Effect near Physiological Temperature.
Article in Polymers, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Biocompatible poly(lactic acid) (PLA) was plasticized with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) added at concentrations of 10, 15, and 20 wt.% relative to PLA, and then processed into gyroid triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) scaffolds using fused filament fabrication (FFF) 3D printing. The influence of PEG concentration and gyroid structure (50% infill density) on thermal transitions, crystallinity, and low-temperature shape-memory performance was systematically investigated. The shape-memory effect (SME) of the PLA-based scaffolds was tailored through compositional control and structural design. Shape recovery under thermal activation at 40 °C and 50 °C was examined to reveal the correlation between composition and structure in governing low-temperature shape-memory behavior. The optimal composition (PLA/10 PEG, 50% gyroid infill) achieved shape recovery with a recovery ratio (
