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

purposeSpermatogonial stem cells are affected by the interactions of extrinsic signals produced by components of the microenvironment niche, in addition to the chemical and physical properties of the extracellular matrix. Therefore, this study was initiated to assess the interaction of these cells on a synthetic nanofibrillar extracellular matrix that mimicked the geometry and nanotopography of the basement membrane for cellular growth.

methodsThis study has used a variety of experimental approaches to investigate the interaction of mouse neonatal-derived spermatogonial stem-like cells on a synthetic random oriented three-dimensional nanofibrillar matrix composed of electrospun polyamide nanofibers (Ultra-Web™).

resultsSpermatogonial stem-like cell colonies were characterized by their ability to express α6-integrin, Thy-1, PLZF, and β1-integrin. After culture of cells on the nanofibrillar surfaces for 7 days, the number of colonies, the number of cells in each colony, and the average area of colonies were increased (P < 0.05). However, the expression difference of related markers in both groups was not significant. A significantly higher proliferation and survival was observed in the nanofibrillar group (P < 0.05). After transplantation into the testes of busulfan-treated adult mice, spermatogonial stem-like cell colonies that were cultured on the nanofibrillar surface demonstrated functionality, as verified by their ability to migrate to the seminiferous basal membrane, where they produced additional colonies.

conclusionsThese results have suggested that electrospun nanofibrillar surfaces could provide a more favorable microenvironment for in vitro short term culture of spermatogonial stem-like cell colonies.
