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

backgroundBone tissue engineering is a widely growing field that requires the combination of cells, scaffolds and signaling molecules. Adipose derived stem cells (ADSCs) are an accessible and abundant source of mesenchymal stem cells with high plasticity. Polycaprolactone/alginate (PCL/Alg) composite scaffolds have been used in bone regeneration and nano-hydroxyapatite (n-HA) is used as a reinforcing, osteoconductive component in scaffold fabrication. This study was conducted to assess the ability of three different PCL/Alg based scaffolds to induce osteogenic differentiation of ADSCs and to compare between them.

methodsThe study comprised 5 groups; negative control group with ADSCs cultured in complete culture media, positive control group with ADSCs cultured in osteogenic differentiation media, and 3 experimental groups with ADSCs seeded onto 3 scaffolds: S1 (PCL/Alg), S2 (PCL/Alg/Ca) and S3 (PCL/Alg/Ca/n-HA) respectively and cultured in osteogenic media. Mineralization and gene expression were assessed by Alizarin red S (ARS) staining and real time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Evaluation was done at 7, 14 and 21 days.

resultsARS staining reflected a time dependent increase through days 7, 14 and 21, with S3 (PCL/Alg/Ca/n-HA) group showing the highest mineralization levels. RT-qPCR detected upregulation of

conclusionsADSCs and PCL/Alg-based scaffolds compose a good tissue engineering complex for bone regeneration. Addition of n-HA to PCL/Alg scaffolds and crosslinking with CaCl2 efficiently improve the osteogenic potential of ADSCs.
