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

There are currently no effective treatments for moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injuries (TBIs). The paracrine functions of undifferentiated neural stem cells (NSCs) are believed to play a significant role in stimulating the repair and regeneration of injured brain tissue. We therefore hypothesized that fibroblast growth factor (FGF2) enriching chondroitin sulfate glycosaminoglycan (CS-GAG) matrices can maintain the undifferentiated state of neural stem cells (NSCs) and facilitate brain tissue repair subacutely post-TBI. Rats subjected to a controlled cortical impactor (CCI) induced TBI were intraparenchymally injected with CS-GAG matrices alone or with CS-GAG matrices containing PKH26GL labeled allogeneic NSCs. Nissl staining of brain tissue 4 weeks post-TBI demonstrated the significantly enhanced (
