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

(1) Background: Reconstruction of Achilles tendon defects and prevention of postoperative tendon adhesions were two serious clinical problems. In the treatment of Achilles tendon defects, decellularized matrix materials and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were thought to address both problems. (2) Methods: In vitro, cell adhesion, proliferation, and tenogenic differentiation of tendon-derived stem cells (TDSCs) on small intestinal submucosa (SIS) were evaluated. RAW264.7 was induced by culture medium of TDSCs and TDSCs-SIS scaffold groups. A rat Achilles tendon defect model was used to assess effects on tendon regeneration and antiadhesion in vivo. (3) Results: SIS scaffold facilitated cell adhesion and tenogenic differentiation of TDSCs, while SIS hydrogel coating promoted proliferation of TDSCs. The expression of TGF-β and ARG-1 in the TDSCs-SIS scaffold group were higher than that in the TDSCs group on day 3 and 7. In vivo, the tendon regeneration and antiadhesion capacity of the implanted TDSCs-SIS scaffold was significantly enhanced. The expression of CD163 was significantly highest in the TDSCs-SIS scaffold group; meanwhile, the expression of CD68 decreased more significantly in the TDSCs-SIS scaffold group than the other two groups. (4) Conclusion: This study showed that biologically prepared SIS scaffolds synergistically promote tendon regeneration with TDSCs and achieve antiadhesion through M2 polarization of macrophages.
