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

Directional axon regeneration and remyelination are crucial for repair of spinal cord injury (SCI), but existing treatments do not effectively promote those processes. Here, we propose a strategy for construction of niche-specific spinal white matter-like tissue (WMLT) using decellularized optic nerve (DON) loaded with neurotrophin-3 (NT-3)-overexpressing oligodendrocyte precursor cells. A rat model with a white matter defect in the dorsal spinal cord of the T10 segment was used. The WMLT transplantation group showed significant improvement in coordinated motor functions compared with the control groups. WMLT transplants integrated well with host spinal cord white matter, effectively addressing several barriers to directional axonal regeneration and myelination during SCI repair. In WMLT, laminin was found to promote development of oligodendroglial lineage (OL) cells by binding to laminin receptors. Interestingly, laminin could also guide linear axon regeneration via interactions with specific integrins on the axon surface. The WMLT developed here utilizes the unique microstructure and bioactive matrix of DON to create a niche rich in laminin, NT-3 and OL cells to achieve significant structural repair of SCI. Our protocol can help to promote research on repair of nerve injury and construction of neural tissues and organoids that form specific cell niches.
