A Novel Crosslinking Method for Improving the Anti-Calcification Ability and Extracellular Matrix Stability in Transcatheter Heart Valves.
Article in Frontiers in bioengineering and biotechnology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
More than 200,000 patients with aortic diseases worldwide undergo surgical valve replacement each year, and transcatheter heart valves (THV) have been more widely used than ever before. However, THV made by the glutaraldehyde (Glut) crosslinking method has the disadvantage of being prone to calcification, which significantly reduces the durability of biomaterials. In this study, we applied a novel crosslinking method using ribose in THV for the first time, which can decrease calcification and increase the stability of the extracellular matrix (ECM). We incubated the bovine pericardium (BP) in ribose solution at 37°C by shaking for 12 days and confirmed that the structure of the BP was more compact than that of the Glut group. Moreover, the ribose method remarkably enhanced the biomechanical properties and provided reliable resistance to enzymatic degradation and satisfactory cellular compatibility in THV.
