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

Acellular matrices produced by tissue decellularisation are reported to have tissue integrative properties. We examined the potential for incorporating acellular matrix grafts during procedures where there is an inadequate natural tissue bed to support an enduring surgical repair. Hypospadias is a common congenital defect requiring surgery, but associated with long-term complications due to deficiencies in the quality and quantity of the host tissue bed at the repair site. Biomaterials were implanted as single on-lay grafts in a peri-urethral position in male pigs. Two acellular tissue matrices were compared: full-thickness porcine acellular bladder matrix (PABM) and commercially-sourced cross-linked acellular matrix from porcine dermis (Permacol™). Anatomical and immunohistological outcomes were assessed 3 months post-surgery. There were no complications and surgical sites underwent full cosmetic repair. PABM grafts were fully incorporated, whilst Permacol™ grafts remained palpable. Immunohistochemical analysis indicated a non-inflammatory, remodelling-type response to both biomaterials. PABM implants showed extensive stromal cell infiltration and neovascularisation, with a significantly higher density of cells (
