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

Full-thickness skin injury affects millions of people worldwide each year. Although bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) have been shown to promote cutaneous wound healing, they cannot functionally promote wound healing with the recovery of appendages such as hair follicles. We previously found that growth factor plus BM-MSCs could effectively promote wound healing and hair follicle regeneration. In the present study, we grafted insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1), a multifunctional cell growth factor, and BM-MSCs into a collagen-chitosan scaffold to investigate their effects on functional wound healing. Using scanning electron microscopy, histological staining, and quantitative analysis, we found that IGF1- and BM-MSC-incorporating collagen-chitosan scaffolds promote cutaneous wound healing with effective regeneration of hair follicles in a rat full-thickness skin injury model. In addition, IGF1/BM-MSCs inhibit inflammatory cytokines during wound healing.
