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

Hydrogel with chemical modification has been used for 3D printing in the biomedical field of cell and tissue-based regeneration because it provides a good cellular microenvironment and mechanical supportive ability. As a scaffold and a matrix, hydrogel itself has to be modified chemically and physically to form a β-sheet crosslinking structure for the strength of the biomaterials. These chemical modifications could affect the biological damage done to encapsulated cells or surrounding tissues due to unreacted chemical residues. Biological assessment, including assessment of the cytocompatibility of hydrogel in clinical trials, must involve testing with cytotoxicity, irritation, and sensitization. Here, we modified silk fibroin and glycidyl methacrylate (Silk-GMA) and evaluated the physical characterizations, residual chemical detection, and the biological effect of residual GMA depending on dialysis periods. Silk-GMA depending on each dialysis period had a typical β-sheet structure in the characterization analysis and residual GMA decreased from dialysis day 1. Moreover, cell proliferation and viability rate gradually increased; additionally, necrotic and apoptotic cells decreased from dialysis day 2. These results indicate that the dialysis periods during chemical modification of natural polymer are important for removing unreacted chemical residues and for the potential application of the manufacturing standardization for chemically modified hydrogel for the clinical transplantation for tissue engineering and biomedical applications.
