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

backgroundWith the development of cell-based gene transfer techniques, genetically modified human keratinocytes (Kc) and fibroblasts (Fb) have been proven to be a better choice in wound repair.

methodsThis study was designed to construct in one step a gene-modified artificial skin by a genetically engineered Kc expressing PDGF-BB and Fb expressing VEGF(165) and bFGF. The wound healing effect in a full-thickness wound model was then observed. Unmodified artificial skin served as control. On the post-operative days 7, 14, and 21, residual wound area was calculated and skin wound tissues were subjected to biopsy for further investigation.

resultsCompared with unmodified artificial skin, gene-modified artificial skin resulted in a reduced wound contraction and a well-organized human epidermis and better formed dermis.

conclusionsThe results suggest that our two-layer, gene-modified artificial skin improved both vascularization and epidermalization for skin regeneration. This technique could bring about a new approach in the treatment of burns and chronic wounds.
