Multimodal Label-Free Imaging for Detecting Maturation of Engineered Osteogenic Grafts.
Article in ACS biomaterials science & engineering, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
There is a critical need to develop noninvasive, nondestructive methods for assessing the quality of engineered constructs prior to implantation. Currently, the composition and maturity of engineered tissues are assessed using destructive, costly, and time-consuming biochemical and mechanical analyses. The goal of this study was to use noninvasive, multimodal imaging to monitor osteogenic differentiation and matrix deposition by human mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) during in vitro culture. MSCs were encapsulated in alginate hydrogels and cultured in osteogenic conditions for 4 weeks. Samples were evaluated using fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIm) and ultrasound backscatter microscopy (UBM) prior to traditional biochemical and mechanical testing. Using linear regression analysis, we identified strong correlations between imaging parameters (e.g., fluorescence lifetime and acoustic attenuation coefficient) and destructive mechanical and biochemical tests to assess the maturation of osteogenically induced constructs. These data demonstrate the promise of nondestructive label-free imaging techniques to noninvasively ascertain the progression and maturity of tissue engineered bone grafts.
