The Relationship Between the Optical Properties of Articular Cartilage and the Biomechanical Parameters of the Tissue.
Article in Journal of biophotonics, 2025. 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
This study investigates the relationship between the optical properties of articular cartilage with its biomechanical parameters. The absorption and reduced scattering coefficients of articular cartilage, and average maximum penetration depth, average maximum lateral spread, and average path length of photons were estimated by optical measurements and Monte Carlo simulation. The equilibrium and instantaneous moduli, and initial fibrillar network, strain-dependent fibrillar network, and nonfibrillar network moduli, and initial and deformation-dependent permeability of the tissue were estimated by multistep stress-relaxation measurement and fibril-reinforced poroelastic modeling. The relationship between the optical properties and biomechanical parameters was assessed using predictive regression modeling. A strong relationship was found between reduced scattering coefficients, averaged maximum penetration depth, averaged maximum lateral spread, and average path length of photons with equilibrium, instantaneous, and initial fibrillar network moduli. We attribute this relationship to the collagen fibers as the main contributor to the scattering and biomechanical properties of the tissue.
