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

Foamed hydroxyapatite offers a three-dimensional scaffold for the development of bone constructs, mimicking perfectly the in vivo bone structure. In vivo, calcium release at the surface is assumed to provide a locally increased gradient supporting the maintenance of the hematopoietic stem cells niche. We fabricated hydroxyapatite scaffolds with high surface calcium concentration by infiltration, and used human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) as a model to study the effects on hematopoietic lineage direction. HUVECs are umbilical vein-derived and thus possess progenitor characteristics, with a prospective potential to give rise to hematopoietic lineages. HUVECs were cultured for long term on three-dimensional porous hydroxyapatite scaffolds, which were either infiltrated biphasic foams or untreated. Controls were cultured in two-dimensional dishes. The release of calcium into culture medium was determined, and cells were analyzed for typical hematopoietic and endothelial gene expressions, surface markers by flow cytometry, and hematopoietic potential using colony-forming unit assays. Our results indicate that the biphasic foams promoted a hematopoietic lineage direction of HUVECs, suggesting an improved in vivo-like scaffold for hematopoietic bone tissue engineering.
