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

Various approaches to treat articular cartilage have been widely investigated due to its poor intrinsic healing capacity. Stem cell-based therapy could be a promising approach as an alternative to chondrocyte-based therapy and some of these therapies have been already applied in clinical condition. This review discusses the current development of stem cell-based therapies in cartilage repair, specifically focusing on scaffold-free approaches.
