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

In order to promote wound repair and induce tissue regeneration, an engineered hyaluronan (HA) hydrogel - Carbylan GSX, which contains di(thiopropionyl) bishydrazide-modified hyaluronic acid, di(thiopropionyl) bishydrazide-modified gelatin and polyethylene glycol diacrylate - has been developed for extracellular matrix (ECM) defects of the superficial and middle layers of the lamina propria. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the biocompatibility of Carbylan GSX in a previously established immortalized human vocal fold fibroblast (hVFF) cell line prior to human clinical trials. Immortalized hVFF proliferation, viability, apoptosis and transcript analysis for both ECM constituents and inflammatory markers were measured for two-dimensional and three-dimensional (3-D) culture conditions. There were no significant differences in morphology, cell marker protein expression, proliferation, viability and apoptosis of hVFF cultured with Carbylan GSX compared to Matrigel, a commercial 3-D control, after 1 week. Gene expression levels for fibromodulin, transforming growth factor-beta1 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha were similar between Carbylan GSX and Matrigel. Fibronectin, hyaluronidase 1 and cyclooxygenase II expression levels were induced by Carbylan GSX, whereas interleukins 6 and 8, Col I and hyaluronic acid synthase 3 expression levels were decreased by Carbylan GSX. This investigation demonstrates that Carbylan GSX may serve as a natural biomaterial for tissue-engineering of human vocal folds.
