Synthetic polymers as xeno-free materials for stabilizing basic fibroblast growth factor in human mesenchymal stem cell cultures.
Article in Biochemistry and biophysics reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Series of sulfonated polymers were evaluated as additives in cell culture media. Some of the compounds, such as sulfated polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), prevented denaturation and loss of basic fibroblast growth factor during cell culture and enhanced human mesenchymal stem cell proliferation. These compounds are xeno-free alternatives of heparin, an animal-derived sulfated saccharide, often used as an additive. To the best our knowledge, this study is the first to show that chemically defined synthetic chemicals, such as sulfated polyvinyl alcohol, can be used for this purpose.
