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

BACKGROUND/

aimsThis study sought to confirm the difference of the wound-healing effect, cell survival, and immune response between autologous fibroblast sheets and allogeneic fibroblast sheets.

methodsRegarding wound healing, autologous or allogeneic fibroblast sheets were transplanted onto a mouse cutaneous wound healing model and the wound contraction rate was evaluated. The luciferase-expressing fibroblast sheet was prepared and the survival of the cell sheet was evaluated by IVIS

resultsAllogeneic fibroblast-sheet transplantation showed significant wound contraction at the early phase of wound healing, which was equivalent to that seen with the autologous fibroblast sheets. Luminescence of the autologous and allogeneic luciferase-expressing fibroblast sheets peaked on Day 5, and no luminescence was observed on Day 13. In the allogeneic fibroblast-sheet transplant group, a significant accumulation of immune cells was observed in the healed tissue but not in the early stage of wound healing.

conclusionThe allogeneic fibroblast sheets showed comparable rates of cell survival and wound-healing effects to those of the autologous fibroblast sheets, despite the subsequent immunogenic response. This result supports the potential practical clinical application of scaffold-free allogeneic fibroblast sheets based on the paracrine effect.
