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

This study provides a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of the literature on 3D printing for osteochondral repair and regeneration, aiming to explore the current research landscape, key emerging topics, and future trends in this field. English-language publications on 3D printing technology and osteochondral repair, published between 2010 and 2024, were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database. The search, conducted on May 1, 2024, followed a structured strategy. Bibliometric analysis was performed on 287 scholarly articles using the Bibliometrix package in R, VOSviewer, and CiteSpace. The study demonstrates a steady increase in global research activity, as reflected by the rising annual and cumulative publication rates in this field. China and the United States dominate in international collaboration, publication output, and funding investment. Collaborative networks between authors, institutions, and countries have played a pivotal role in advancing the development of 3D printing technology for osteochondral repair. The journal
