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

Cartilage is an avascular tissue with low cellularity and insufficient self-repair response. In clinical practice, a large articular cartilage defect is usually fixed by cartilage transplantation. Importantly, the fast repair process has been demanded postoperatively in the area between the host cartilage and the transplanted cartilage. In the past few years, magnetic nanoparticles have drawn great attention due to their biocompatible, biodegradable, and nontoxic properties. In addition, the nanoparticles can easily pass through the cell plasma membrane and increase the cellular uptake efficiency. Here, a therapeutic drug delivery strategy was proposed for cartilage repair. The prepared kartogenin (KGN)-conjugated magnetic nanocarriers (KGN@NCs) promoted the viability of chondrocytes in vitro. In a rat model of cartilage transplantation, intra-articularly delivered KGN@NCs generated cartilage with a flat surface and a high level of aggrecan in vivo. Notably, KGN@NCs were also capable of improving the pain-related motor functions. They promoted the motor functional parameters including the print area and intensity to restore to a normal level compared with the single KGN. Therefore, these therapeutic drug nanocarriers provided the potential for cartilage repair.
