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

There is a growing demand for in vitro models of human tissues that recapitulate the complex structures and functions found in vivo, and the biomaterials that support these physiologically relevant models are essential underpinning technologies. Here, we present an optimized protocol for generating human skin equivalents (HSEs) using a dermal matrix isolated from decellularized porcine skin. The decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) contains a complex mixture of fibrillar collagens and matrisomal proteins that mimic native skin and can be produced in large quantities. The procedure for decellularization, digestion, and solubilization of the dECM is described in detail. In addition, we provide instructions for how to construct a three-dimensional HSE model using the dECM as the dermal support matrix for human keratinocytes and dermal fibroblasts. Recent studies from our laboratory have shown that HSEs generated using porcine dECM display improved epidermal differentiation and stratification compared to existing protocols using type I collagen gels. Thus, dECM-based biomaterials are a useful tool for replicating human skin physiology in vitro and developing advanced human skin models for therapeutic discovery and testing. © 2022 The Authors.
