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 objective of this study is to evaluate the possibility of gelatin hydrogel nonwoven fabrics (GHNF) of a cell culture scaffold to formulate 3-dimensional (3D) cell construct. The thickness of cell construct is about 1 mm and the cells inside are live and bio-active, irrespective of their internal distribution. The GHNF were prepared by the solution blow method of gelatin, following by dehydrothermal crosslinking. The GHNF showed a mechanical strength strong enough not to allow the shape to deform even in a wet state. The wet GHNF also showed resistance against repeated compression. After human mesenchymal stromal cells (hMSC) were seeded and cultured, the inner distribution in GHNF, the apoptosis, hypoxia inducible factor (HIF)-1α, Ki67, collagen or sulfated glycosaminoglycan (sGAG) secretion of cells were evaluated. The hMSC proliferated inside the GHNF with time while a homogeneous distribution in the number of cells proliferated from the surface to the 1000 μm depth of GHNF was observed. The number of apoptosis and HIF-1α positive cells was significantly low compared with that of polypropylene nonwoven fabrics with the similar fiber diameters and intra-structure. The GHNF were degraded during cell culture, and completely replaced by collagen and sGAG secreted. It is concluded that the GHNF is a promising cell culture scaffold for 3D cell constructs.
