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

Cytokine-directed monocyte infiltration is involved in multiple pathological processes. Immuno-isolating matrices that can sequester cell-released chemokines in a microenvironment may prolong the viability and functionality of implanted materials. We describe a self-assembling peptide-based hydrogel that can capture the cytokine CCL2 released in the extracellular space by immune cells and stromal cells. The shear-responsive matrix can absorb and retain this signaling molecule needed for the chemotaxis of the infiltrating monocytes and their differentiation into phagocytic macrophages. Such cytokine-sequestering biomaterials may be useful as adjunctive materials with the delivery of exogenous implants or cell suspensions for tissue regeneration, without the administration of systemic immunosuppressants. Our work highlights the versatility of nanofibrous peptide hydrogels for modulating the biological response in tissue niches.
