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

The uterus is considered to be a unique wound-healing model and distinguished by the repeated shedding of the endometrium and self-traceless regeneration. Common curettage, cesarean section, and other operations often cause endometrial and myometrial defects and obstetric and gynecological complications, leading to a high demand for uterine repair or partial replacement. However, the structure and function of the uterus are complicated. Functional uterine tissue engineering requires highly specialized biomaterials with a natural extracellular microenvironment. Currently, no biomaterial can fully simulate the structural and biomechanical properties of the uterus. Many efforts have been made to develop highly functional materials and tissue structures that may provide uterine tissue engineering constructs for reducing obstetric and gynecological complications. Continuous efforts will likely facilitate the development of scalable cells and biomaterial technologies for clinical use. This review summarizes the recent applications of biomaterials and tissue engineering in rebuilding a portion of or the entire uterus.
