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

As an important load-bearing part of the body, joints are prone to articular cartilage degradation during exercise, resulting in joint pain, swelling, and deformity, which has an adverse impact on patients' life quality and social medical security. Therefore, this study aims to test an effective biopolymer scaffold in promoting the growth of chondrocytes in talus. Hydrogel (Gel)-nanohydroxyapatite (nHA) was invented as a new type of biopolymer scaffold for osteoarthritis treatment in this research. To detect the effects of Gel-nHA on guidance, cartilage matrix secretion, mineralization, proliferation, and migration of chondrocyte, we cultured chondrocytes to study the biological properties of nHA. It was found that Gel could guide chondrocytes to permeate and migrate, so it could be used as acellular matrix scaffolds for chondrocyte regeneration. In addition, nHA could stimulate chondrocytes to secrete cartilage matrix, such as type II collagen and mucopolysaccharide (GAGs). At the same time, nHA help to induce chondrocyte mineralization and stimulate the secretion of type X collagen, so as to better maintain the integrity of bone cartilage interface. In Gel-nHA, chondrocyte viability could be better maintained, and the proliferation and migration of chondrocytes could be better promoted, so as to better repair the articular cartilage of talus. Therefore, the Gel-nHA scaffold is expected to become an effective method for repairing talus cartilage in the future.
