Aponeurosis discission, a low-detergent method for tissue-engineered acellular ligament scaffolds.
Article in Journal of materials science. Materials in medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Detergent treatment is the most commonly used method for the decellularization of ligaments and tendon grafts. However, it is well recognized that detergent treatment can also adversely affect the extracellular matrix. This study found that discission into the aponeurosis layer of the patellar tendon (PT) before decellularization is conducive to extracting cells from the PT using a low quantity of detergent in a short time period. The acellular aponeurosis discission ligament (AADL) retains its native collagen fibril structure and mechanical properties. Moreover, the PT retained cell and tissue compatibility in vitro and in vivo. After implantation into a defective allogeneic PT, we found that the AADL healed well in the host, and its collagen structure exhibited gradual improvement 12 months after implantation with satisfactory reconstruction. IMPACT: The aponeurosis of tendons/ligaments is the main barrier to achieving complete decellularization, and it thus prevents complete recellularization for applications in tissue engineering. Aponeurosis can obstruct the removal of cell components. We found that excising the aponeurosis before decellularization allows for the removal of cellular components with a reduced amount of detergent, thus improving the biological properties of the acellular ligament. To the best of our knowledge, no similar studies have been performed. Graphical abstract.
