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

introductionArtificial dermis is an effective therapeutic method for full-thickness dermal defects. However, the currently available artificial dermis made of porcine or bovine type I collagen has several limitations such as incomplete epithelialization and delayed migration of fibrogenic and angiogenic cells into the graft. We previously developed a composite dermal graft containing a mixture of moon jellyfish collagen and porcine type I collagen, and reported its stimulatory effect on both the re-epithelialization of the epidermis and the migration of fibrogenic and angiogenic cells into the graft. In the present study, we examined whether the same effect was observed by administering jellyfish collagen solution externally onto an artificial dermal graft made of bovine type I collagen.

methodsWe used a 6 mm full-thickness wound defect model. Moon jellyfish collagen was prepared as a concentrated 0.5% solution and dripped externally onto a transplanted artificial dermal graft made of bovine type I collagen. Wound repair and long-term dermal tissue remodeling were compared between mice administered jellyfish collagen solution on the bovine collagen graft and those transplanted with a composite dermal graft containing the same amounts of jellyfish and bovine collagens. The stimulatory effect of jellyfish collagen solution was also evaluated using diabetic dB/dB mice.

resultsExternal administration of jellyfish collagen solution onto the bovine collagen graft significantly accelerated wound closure compared to control saline. It also decreased the number of inflammatory cells infiltrating the wound and suppressed absorption of the transplanted graft, as well as reduced subsequent scar formation. Furthermore, external administration of jellyfish collagen solution onto the bovine collagen graft improved the delayed wound healing in diabetic model mice, and this effect was superior to that of the currently used basic fibroblast growth factor.

conclusionsExternal administration of moon jellyfish collagen solution onto a bovine collagen graft significantly accelerated physiological wound healing and prevented excessive scar formation. It also improved wound closure in diabetic model mice, confirming its therapeutic application for intractable skin ulcers caused by impaired wound healing.
