From passive fillers to active implants: A 3D-printed trilayer piezoelectric scaffold recapitulating native bone hierarchy.
Article in Bioactive materials, 2027. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Critical-sized alveolar bone defects affect over 10 million patients annually, yet current synthetic bone substitutes act as passive osteoconductive fillers with unpredictable outcomes. Native bone, by contrast, achieves robust regeneration through a trilayered hierarchy of cancellous, cortical, and metabolically active periosteal tissues, with intrinsic piezoelectricity converting mechanical loading into endogenous electrical cues. While piezoelectric biomaterials have emerged as promising active implants, existing homogeneous scaffolds fail to recapitulate native bone's structural complexity and electromechanical coupling; to date, no work has combined this trilayer architecture with piezoelectric functionality in a single construct. Here we report a trilayer bioinspired piezoelectric scaffold fabricated via a two-step conformal 3D printing strategy, composed of a strontium-doped β-tricalcium phosphate (Sr-β-TCP) triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) cancellous layer, a dense cortical layer, and a barium titanate/silk fibroin (BTO/SF) piezoelectric periosteal layer. Under non-invasive low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) stimulation, the scaffold generates bioelectrical signals that support robust osteogenic activity and pro-angiogenic potential
