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

Injectable thermoresponsive hydrogels have the advantages of effective cell delivery and minimal invasion for tissue engineering applications. In this study, we investigated the chondroinductive potential of newly developed hyaluronic acid (HA)-modified thermoresponsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (HA-PNIPAAm-CL) hydrogels on enhancing rabbit ADSC (rADSC) chondrogenesis in vitro and in the synovial cavity of rabbit. The HA-mixed PNIPAAm (HA-PNIPAAm-CP) and HA-cross-linked PNIPAAm (HA-PNIPAAm-CL) were fabricated using physical interaction and chemical cross-linking methods, respectively. The in vitro results showed that, compared to unmodified PNIPAAm, both HA-modified hydrogels significantly increased cell viability, chondrogenic marker gene (aggrecan and type II collagen) expression and sulfide glycosaminoglycan (sGAG) formation in embedded rADSCs. However, HA-PNIPAAm-CL showed the highest rADSC viability and chondrogenesis. The chondrogenic effects of HA-modified hydrogels on rADSCs were confirmed in vivo by the intraarticular injection of hydrogel-embedded rADSC constructs into rabbit synovial cavities for 3 weeks and tracing with CM-DiI labeling. Neocartilage formation in the hydrogels was determined by histomorphological staining of GAG and type II collagen. In vivo injected rADSC/HA-PNIPAAm-CL constructs showed more hyaline cartilage formation than that of rADSC/HA-PNIPAAm-CP and rADSC/PNIPAAm constructs in the synovial cavity of rabbit. These results suggest that the HA-PNIPAAm-CL provides a suitable microenvironment to enhance ADSC chondrogenesis for articular cartilage tissue engineering applications.
