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

Peripheral nerve injury (PNI) is a clinical problem with high morbidity that can cause severe damage. Surgical suturing or implants are usually required due to the slow speed and numerous factors affecting repair after PNI. An autologous nerve graft is the gold standard for PNI repair among implants. However, there is a potential problem of the functional loss of the donor site. Therefore, tissue-engineered nerve biomaterials are often used to bridge the gap between nerve defects, but the therapeutic effect is insufficient. In order to enhance the repair effect of nerve biomaterials for PNI, researchers are seeking to combine various stimulation elements, such as the addition of biological factors such as nerve growth factors or physical factors such as internal microstructural modifications of catheters and their combined application with physical stimulation therapy. Physical stimulation therapy is safer, is more convenient, and has more practical features than other additive factors. Its feasibility and convenience, when combined with nerve biomaterials, provide broader application prospects for PNI repair, and has therefore become a research hot spot. This paper will review the combined application of physical stimulation and biomaterials in PNI repair in recent years to provide new therapeutic ideas for the future use of physical stimulation in PNI repair.
