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

The increasing demand for organs for transplantation necessitates the development of substitutes to meet the structural and physiological functions. Tissue decellularization and recellularization aids in retaining the three-dimensional integrity, biochemical composition, tissue ultra-structure, and mechanical behavior, which makes them functionally suitable for organ transplantation. Herein, we attempted to rebuild functional liver grafts in small animal model (Wistar rat) with a potential of translation. A soft approach was adopted using 0.1% SDS (Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate) for decellularization and primary hepatocytes were used as a potential cell source for recellularization. The decellularization process was evaluated and confirmed using histology, DNA content, ultra-structure analysis. The resultant scaffold was re-seeded with the rat hepatocytes and their biocompatibility was assessed by its metabolic functions and gene expression. The structural components of the Extracellular matrix (ECM) (Laminins, Collagen type I, Reticulins) were conserved and the liver cell-specific proteins like CK-18, alpha-fetoprotein, albumin were expressed in the recellularized scaffold. The functionality and metabolic activity of the repopulated scaffold were evident from the albumin and urea production. Expression of Cytokeratin-19 (CK-19), Glucose 6-Phosphatase (G6P), Albumin, Gamma Glutamyl Transferase (GGT) genes has distinctly confirmed the translational signals after the repopulation process. Our study clearly elucidates that the native extracellular matrix of rat liver can be utilized as a scaffold for effective recellularization for whole organ regeneration.
