Constructing a Novel Three-Dimensional Biomimetic Corneal Endothelium Graft by Culturing Corneal Endothelium Cells on Compressed Collagen Gels.
Article in Chinese medical journal, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
backgroundEndothelium allotransplantation is the primary treatment for corneal decompensation. The worldwide shortage of donor corneal tissue has led to increasing pressure to seek an alternative for surgical restoration of corneal endothelium. Compressed collagen (CC) gels have excellent biocompatibility, simple preparation course and easy to be manipulated. This study aimed to form a new biomimetic endothelium graft by CC.
methodsWe expanded bovine corneal endothelial cells (B-CECs) on laminin-coated CC to form a biomimetic endothelium graft. Scanning electron microscope was used for ultrastructural analysis and tight junction protein ZO-1 expression was tested by immunohistochemistry.
resultsThe biomimetic endothelium graft, we conducted had normal cell morphology, ultrastructure and higher cell density (3612.2 ± 43.4 cells/mm
conclusionsA. biomimetic endothelium graft with B-CECs expanded on CC sheet was constructed, which possessed cells' morphology similar to that of in vivo endothelial cells and specific basic function of endothelium layer. This method provided the possibility of using one donor's cornea to form multiple uniformed endothelium grafts so as to overcome the shortage of cadaveric cornea tissue.
