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

backgroundThe reported incidence of mesh infection in contaminated operative fields is as high as 30% regardless of material used. Our laboratory previously showed that augmenting acellular bioprosthetic mesh with allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) enhances resistance to bacterial colonization in vivo and preserves mesh integrity. This study's aim was to determine whether augmentation of non-crosslinked porcine dermis (Strattice) with commercially available, cryopreserved, viable MSC-containing human placental tissue (Stravix) similarly improves infection resistance after inoculation with

methodsStravix was thawed per manufacturer's instructions and 2 samples were tested for cell viability using a Live/Dead Cell assay at the time of surgery. Rats (N = 20) were implanted subcutaneously with 1 piece of Strattice and 1 piece of hybrid mesh (Strattice + Stravix sutured at the corners). Rats were inoculated with either sterile saline or 10

conclusionsStravix cryopreserved MSC-containing human umbilical tissue does not improve infection resistance of a bioprosthetic mesh in vivo in rats after inoculation with
