Anatase-Gentamicin Electrophoretic Coatings on Polyurethane-Modified Titanium: Antibacterial Performance, Biocompatibility, and Drug Delivery.
Article in International journal of biomaterials, 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
Infections, limited biocompatibility, and material degradation remain major challenges for metallic implants in biomedical applications. To address these issues, this study presents a multifunctional coating strategy for Grade 2 titanium using a base layer of segmented polyurethane (Tecoflex SG-80A), followed by the co-deposition of titanium dioxide nanoparticles and gentamicin sulfate. Corrosion polarization tests revealed enhanced passivation of polyurethane-coated surfaces with no signs of pitting corrosion. Coatings showed porous microstructures with both nanoparticles and antibiotics distributed within and along pore edges. Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) confirmed the surface presence of both components. Thermogravimetric analysis indicated loadings of 0.17 ± 0.02 mg of gentamicin and 0.30 ± 0.04 mg of TiO
