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.

Abstract

backgroundThe goal of this study was to create a biomaterial which combines concentrated growth factor (CGF) with an adipose-derived stem cell (ADSC) sheet to promote the repair of skull defects in rats.

methodsWe determined the optimal concentration of CGF extract by investigating the effects of different concentrations (0, 5%, 10%, and 20%) on the proliferation and differentiation of ADSCs. Then we created a complex combining CGF with an ADSC sheet, and tested the effects on bone repair in four experimental rat groups: (A) control; (B) ADSC sheet; (C) CGF particles; (D) combination of CGF + ADSCs. Eight weeks after the procedure, osteogenesis was assessed by micro-CT and hematoxylin and eosin staining.

resultsWe found that the concentration of CGF extract that promoted optimal ADSC proliferation and differentiation in vitro was 20%. In turn, bone regeneration was promoted the most by the combination of CGF and ADSCs.

conclusionIn this study, we determined the optimal ratio of CGF and ADSCs to be used in a biomaterial for bone regeneration. The resulting CGF/ADSCs complex promotes maxillofacial bone defect repair in rats.
