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

Bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) is an efficacious inducer for the osteogenesis of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Conventional applications of BMP2 have involved either the direct incorporation of BMP2 protein or ex vivo BMP2 gene transfer into stem cells prior to their transplantation. These approaches are able to promote bone formation to some extent; however, they are hampered by either the lack of stability and sustainability of BMP2 protein or the time-consuming and cost-prohibitive in vitro cell culture procedure. To overcome these limitations, we have developed a gene-activated poly-L-lactide acid (PLLA) scaffold with the encapsulation of recombinant adeno-associated viral (AAV) vector encoding a full-length cDNA of human BMP2 using an ice-based microparticle porogenization method that was recently developed. Results showed continuous release of AAV particles from the micropores of scaffolds for up to 1 week, subsequently transducing embedded human MSCs and producing functional BMP2. MSCs within scaffolds underwent efficacious osteogenesis, on the basis of osteoinductive gene expression and osteogenic differentiation, which resulted in robust new bone formation in vivo at 4 weeks. These findings show the potential of the technology toward developing clinical applications of a rapid, cost-effective, and potentially point-of-care approach for the repair of bone defects.
