Mineralized DNA-collagen complex-based biomaterials for bone tissue engineering.
Article in International journal of biological macromolecules, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
DNA is a highly polyanionic biomolecule that complexes with both collagen and hydroxyapatite. By combining these complexes, we synthesized nucleic-acid collagen complexes (NACC) mineralized with hydroxyapatite. The composite complexes were made using a short, monodisperse single-stranded DNA, type I collagen, and mineralizing medium. They rapidly self-assembled into both mineralized NACC microfibers and 3D NACC gels. At the nanoscale, these complexes are hierarchical, interwoven, curly nanofibrils resembling native extracellular matrix, which mineralized an interpenetrating nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite phase. Mineralization was able to be done either before or after NACC formation enabling temporal control of the process. In response to the NACC material, primary human osteoblasts took on an osteocyte-like morphology. Moreover, the cells agglomerated and remodeled the NACC gels into densified, tissue-like structures within 3 days. NACC fibers and gels have promise not only as osteoconductive coatings and scaffolds, but as coatings and scaffolds for any tissue using this new form of naturally-derived biomaterials.
