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

Tuning hydrogel degradation enables effective and successful tissue regeneration by modulating cellular behaviors and matrix formation. In this work, we develop a novel degradable hydrogel scaffold on the basis of a unique enzyme-substrate complex by photocrosslinking. Chitosan and lysozyme are chemically modified with methacrylate moieties to be tethered in hydrogels, and in the presence of riboflavin initiator, these hydrogels are cured by blue light irradiation. The incorporation of lysozyme to chitosan hydrogels accelerates the degradation rate of the crosslinked hydrogels in a dose-dependent manner, as evidenced by an increase in pore size and interconnectivity through cryogenic scanning electron microscopy over time. Those noncytotoxic materials significantly enhance cellular proliferation and migration, which contribute to osteogenic differentiation of encapsulated mesenchymal stem cells in vitro and bone formation in mouse calvarial defects. These findings suggest a promising strategy to modulate the degradation behavior of hydrogels for use in tissue engineering.
