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

Poly(ε-caprolactone)-based segmented polyurethanes (PUs) were developed as potential materials for bone tissue engineering, with particular emphasis on porous substitutes for cancellous bone. PUs with hard segment (HS) contents ranging from 17.6 to 32.0% were synthesized from poly(ε-caprolactone) diol, 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate, and 1,4-butanediol. The effects of HS content and post-synthesis incubation temperature (40 and 80 °C) on the structural, thermal, surface, mechanical, and biological properties were investigated. The polyurethane containing 25.5% HS exhibited a favorable combination of structural and mechanical properties and was selected for the preparation of porous composites containing microhydroxyapatite (μHAp) and ZrO
