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

Self-healing and autologous bone graft of calvaraial defects can be challenging. Therefore, the fabrication of scaffolds for its rapid and effective repair is a promising field of research. This paper provided a comparative study on the ability of Three-dimensional (3D) printed polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffolds and PCL-modified with the hydroxyapatite (HA) and bioglasses (BG) bioceramics scaffolds in newly bone formed in calvaria defect area. The studied 3D-printed PCL scaffolds were fabricated by fused deposition layer-by-layer modeling. After the evaluation of cell adhesion on the surface of the scaffolds, they were implanted into a rat calvarial defect model. The rats were divided into four groups with scaffold graft including PCL, PCL/HA, PCL/BG, and PCL/HA/BG and a non-explant control group. The capacity of the 3D-printed scaffolds in calvarial bone regeneration was investigated using micro computed tomography scan, histological and immunohistochemistry analyses. Lastly, the expression levels of several bone related genes as well as the expression of miR-20a and miR-17-5p as positive regulators and miR-125a as a negative regulator in osteogenesis pathways were also investigated. The results of this comparative study have showed that PCL scaffolds with HA and BG bioceramics have a great range of potential applications in the field of calvaria defect treatment.
