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

Cartilage lesion repair is difficult due to the limited self-repair capability of cartilage and its lack of vascularization. Our previous study established a sandwich model for engineering cartilage with acellular cartilage sheets (ACSs) and chondrocytes. However, there is still debate over which agent achieves the optimal decellularization of cartilage sheets. In addition, changes in the extracellular matrix after decellularization are worth studying. We aimed to determine the optimal decellularization reagents and decellularization time for preparing cartilage sheets. This study compared the effects of 2 extraction chemicals [t-octylphenoxypolyethoxyethanol (Triton X-100) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)] on cartilage sheets. The sheets were soaked in various concentrations (0.1-2%) of the extraction solutions for various time periods (24-72 h). After the decellularization process with the various treatments, we examined the cell removal and preservation of the matrix components and microstructure to determine which method was the most efficient while inducing minimal damage to the perichondrium. Both protocols achieved decellularization within an acceptable time. DNA analysis showed that the reagent removed nearly all of the DNA from the cartilage sheets. The growth factor contents in the Triton X-100 samples were higher than those in the SDS samples, quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Furthermore, Triton X-100 decreased the glycosaminoglycan (GAG) and increased the chondromodulin-I contents compared with SDS. The results of a Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay revealed that the ACSs were not cytotoxic. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that cartilage sheets decellularized by 1% SDS for 24 h or by 2% Triton X-100 for 48 h may be suitable candidate scaffolds for cartilage tissue engineering.
