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

Surgical repair of severe rotator cuff tear often results in retear due to unaddressed muscle degeneration. The objective of this study was to test the regenerative potential of micronized dehydrated Human Amnion/Chorion Membrane (dHACM), in a clinically relevant delayed reattachment model of rotator cuff repair. Micronized dHACM was injected into rat supraspinatus muscle during tendon re-attachment surgery, three weeks after original tendon injury. One week after material injection, inflammatory and mesenchymal stem cell infiltration into supraspinatus muscles was assessed via flow cytometry. Histological methods were utilized to assess structural and regenerative changes in muscle one and three weeks after material injection. Micronized dHACM injection resulted in increased M1-like macrophages (17.1 [Formula: see text] fold change over contralateral controls) and regenerating muscle fibers (4.3% vs 1.7% in saline treated muscles) one week after injection compared to saline treated muscles. Tendon reattachment itself exhibited intrinsic healing in this model, demonstrated by a general return of muscle weight and reduced fibrosis. Our results indicate that injection of micronized dHACM may initiate an inflammatory response in degenerated muscle that promotes early muscle regeneration, and that our animal model may be a suitable platform for studying treatments in muscle at early timepoints, before intrinsic healing occurs.
