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

Irgacure 2959 (I2959) is widely used as a photoinitiator for photochemical crosslinking of hydrogels. However, the free radicals generated from I2959 have been reported to be highly cytotoxic. In this study, methacrylated collagen (CMA) hydrogels were photochemically crosslinked using two different photoinitiators (i.e., I2959 and VA086) and the effect of photoinitiator type, photoinitiator concentration (i.e., 0.02 and 0.1%) and crosslinking time (1 and 10 min) on gel morphology, compressive modulus, and stability were investigated. In addition, Saos-2 cells were encapsulated within the hydrogels and the effect of photochemical crosslinking conditions on cell viability, metabolic activity, and osteoblast functionality was assessed. Scanning electron microscopy imaging showed that photochemical crosslinking decreased the porosity of the hydrogels resulting in decrease in water retention ability compared to uncrosslinked hydrogels. On the other hand, photochemical crosslinking improved the stability of CMA hydrogels (p < 0.05). Uniaxial compression tests showed that increasing the photoinitiator concentration significantly improved the compressive modulus of CMA hydrogels (p < 0.05). Results from the live-dead assay showed that VA086 crosslinked hydrogels exhibited higher cell viability compared to I2959 (p < 0.05) crosslinked hydrogels indicating that VA086 is more cytocompatible compared to I2959. Furthermore, Alizarin Red S staining revealed a significantly more pronounced cell-mediated mineralization on VA086 crosslinked hydrogels (p < 0.05) indicating that Saos-2 cells retain their normal functionality in the presence of VA086. In summary, these results indicate that VA086 is a more biocompatible photoinitiator compared to I2959 for the generation of photochemically crosslinked CMA hydrogels for tissue engineering applications. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
