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

objectiveThe aim of this study was to investigate growth and differentiation of neural stem cells (NSCs) on the phosphatase and tensin homology deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN)-inhibitor-adsorbed chitosan scaffold.

methodsNSCs were divide into the chitosan group and the control groups, and performed CCK-8 test on 1(st), 3(rd) and 7(th) d to compare the proliferation between the 2 groups. The chitosan scaffold adsorbed PTEN inhibitor bpv (pic), and the empty scaffold was used as the control for co-culture of NSCs, immunofluorescence staining was performed on 7(th) d to detect the differentiation of NSCs on the scaffold.

resultsThe results of CCK-8 test showed no significant difference in the absorbance between the 2 groups. Immunofluorescence staining showed that the NSCs numbers of the bpv scaffold group were more than the empty scaffold group, among which the anti-glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) positive cells were less than the empty scaffold group, while the anti-β-Tubulin III positive cells were more than the empty scaffold group, the two groups both showed rare anti-receptor-interacting protein (RIP) positive cells.

conclusionsChitosan scaffold exhibited good compatibility to NSCs, the PTEN-inhibitor-adsorbed chitosan scaffold could promote the migration of NSCs towards the scaffold and their differentiation towards neurons.
