Effects of oxygen generating scaffolds on cell survival and functional recovery following acute spinal cord injury in rats.
Article in Journal of materials science. Materials in medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Persistent local oxygen delivery is crucial to create a microenvironment for cell survival and nerve regeneration in acute spinal cord injury (SCI). This study aimed to fabricate calcium peroxide-based microspheres incorporated into a 3-D construct scaffold as a novel oxygen release therapy for SCI. The scaffolds were able to generate oxygen over the course of 21 days when incubated under hypoxic conditions. In vitro, GFP-labeled bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were planted into the scaffolds. We observed that scaffolds could enhance MSC survival under hypoxic conditions for more than 21 days. Oxygen generating scaffolds were transplanted into spinal cord injury sites of rats in vivo. Twelve weeks following transplantation, cavity areas in the injury/graft site were significantly reduced due to tissue regeneration. Additionally, the oxygen generating scaffolds improved revascularization as observed through vWF immunostaining. A striking feature was the occurrence of nerve fiber regeneration in the lesion sites, which eventually led to significant locomotion recovery. The present results indicate that the oxygen generating scaffolds have the property of sustained local oxygen release, thus facilitating regeneration in injured spinal cords.
