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

aimWe hypothesized that delivery of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in a biomimetic collagen scaffold improves wound healing in a diabetic mouse model. MATERIALS &

methodsRolled collagen scaffolds containing MSCs were implanted or applied topically to diabetic C57BL/6 mice with excisional wounds.

resultsRolled scaffolds were hypoxic, inducing MSC synthesis and secretion of VEGF. Diabetic mice with wounds treated with rolled scaffolds containing MSCs showed increased healing compared with controls. Histologic examination showed increased cellular proliferation, increased VEGF expression and capillary density, and increased numbers of macrophages, fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells. Addition of laminin to the collagen scaffold enhanced these effects.

conclusionActivated MSCs delivered in a biomimetic-collagen scaffold enhanced wound healing in a translationally relevant diabetic mouse model.
