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

The cell scaffolds should structurally be manufactured similar to the target tissue's extracellular matrix. This property should be maintained until cell differentiation. For this purpose, in the current study, electrospun nanofiber (EN) of chitosan (Ch)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), as a tissue-friend scaffold, was fabricated by electrospinning in different formulations and borax was utilized as an innovative cross-linking agent to up-regulate the structural and biomechanical properties. The weight loss, water absorbability, structural stability, tensile strength and biocompatibility of borax-included and non-included ENs were compared. The finest morphology, weight loss, water absorbability, structural stability in an aqueous environment, tensile strength and cell viability were found in the borax-included EN containing Ch50.00%v/PVA50.00%v. Moreover, The ENs exhibited appropriate antibacterial properties against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. In conclusion, borax can be used to improve the mechanical and biocompatibility features of the Ch/PVA-based ENs. Furthermore, it could be suggested that borax-included Ch/PVA ENs can exhibit high appropriate biological properties, candidate them as an appropriate scaffold in the field of tissue engineering.
