Detergent-Free Decellularization of Notochordal Cell-Derived Matrix Yields a Regenerative, Injectable, and Swellable Biomaterial.
Article in ACS biomaterials science & engineering, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Porcine notochordal cell-derived matrix (NCM) has anti-inflammatory and regenerative effects on degenerated intervertebral discs. For its clinical use, safety must be assured. The porcine DNA is concerning because of (1) the transmission of endogenous retroviruses and (2) the inflammatory potential of cell-free DNA. Here, we present a simple, detergent-free protocol: tissue lyophilization lyses cells, and matrix integrity is preserved by limiting swelling during decellularization. DNA is digested quickly by a high nuclease concentration, followed by a short washout. Ninety-four percent of DNA was removed, and there was no loss of glycosaminoglycans or collagen. Forty-three percent of the total proteins remained in the decellularized NCM (dNCM). dNCM stimulated as much GAG production as NCM in nucleus pulposus cells but lost some anti-inflammatory effects. Reconstituted pulverized dNCM yielded a soft, shear-thinning biomaterial with a swelling ratio of 350% that also acted as an injectable cell carrier (cell viability >70%). dNCM can therefore be used as the basis for future biomaterials aimed at disc regeneration on a biological level and may restore joint mechanics by creating swelling pressure within the intervertebral disc.
