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

Magnesium (Mg) reinforced polylactic acid (PLA) composites have attracted increasing interest for orthopedic implants to solve the insufficient strength of PLA and to utilize the bioactive advantages of Mg ions in promoting bone formation. However, the weak interfacial adhesion between the Mg and PLA limits the applications of the composite. In this study, a dual interfacial enhancement approach was designed to combine surface fluorination with perforation. During hot pressing, molten PLA infiltrates the pores to form a 'rivet-like' mechanical interlocking. This structure significantly alters the load transfer and degradation behaviors of the composite. Compared to pure PLA, the dual treatment significantly elevated the bending strength by 49%, alongside an increase in the bending strain from 15% to 25%. Moreover, in vitro degradation tests revealed that this strategy suppresses H
