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

Engineering living bone tissue of defined shape on-demand has remained a challenge. 3D bioprinting (3DBP), a biofabrication process capable of yielding cell constructs of defined shape, when combined with developmental engineering can provide a possible path forward. Through the development of a bioink possessing appropriate rheological properties to carry a high cell load and concurrently yield physically stable structures, printing of stable, cell-laden, single-matrix constructs of anatomical shapes is realized without the need for fugitive or support phases. Using this bioink system, constructs of hypertrophic cartilage of predesigned geometry are engineered in vitro by printing human mesenchymal stromal cells at a high density to drive spontaneous condensation and implanted in nude mice to evoke endochondral ossification. The implanted constructs retain their prescribed shape over a 12-week period and undergo remodeling to yield ossicles of the designed shape with neovascularization. Microcomputed tomography, histological, and immunohistochemistry assessments confirm bone tissue characteristics and the presence of human cells. These results demonstrate the potential of 3DBP to fabricate complex bone tissue for clinical application.
