A smart bilayer scaffold of elastin-like recombinamer and collagen for soft tissue engineering.
Article in Journal of materials science. Materials in medicine, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Elastin-like recombinamers (ELRs) are smart, protein-based polymers designed with desired peptide sequences using recombinant DNA technology. The aim of the present study was to produce improved tissue engineering scaffolds from collagen and an elastin-like protein tailored to contain the cell adhesion peptide RGD, and to investigate the structural and mechanical capacities of the resulting scaffolds (foams, fibers and foam-fiber bilayer scaffolds). The results of the scanning electron microscopy, mercury porosimetry and mechanical testing indicated that incorporation of ELR into the scaffolds improved the uniformity and continuity of the pore network, decreased the pore size (from 200 to 20 μm) and the fiber diameter (from 1.179 μm to 306 nm), broadened the pore size distribution (from 70-200 to 4-200 μm) and increased their flexibility (from 0.007 to 0.011 kPa⁻¹). Culture of human fibroblasts and epithelial cells in ELR-collagen scaffolds showed the positive contribution of ELR on proliferation of both types of cells.
