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
In this study, a biological conduit, consisting of an adipocyte-derived mesenchymal stem cell (AdMSCs) sheet and amniotic membrane (AM), was designed for the reconstruction of peripheral nerve defects. To evaluate the effect of the produced conduit on neural regeneration, a 10-mm sciatic nerve defect was created in rats, and experiments were carried out on six groups, i.e., sham control group (SC), negative control group (NC), nerve autograft group (NG), the biological conduit (AdMSCs + AM) group, the commercial PGA tube conduit (PGA) group, and the conduit only consisting of AM (AM) group. The effects of different nerve repair methods on the peripheral nerve and gastrocnemius muscle were evaluated by functional, histological, and immunohistochemical tests. When the number of myelinated axons was compared between the groups of AdMSCs + AM and PGA, it was higher in the AdMSCs + AM group (p < 0.05). The percentage of gastrocnemius collagen bundle area of AdMSCs + AM group was found to be statistically lower than the PGA group (p < 0.05). The muscle fiber diameter of AdMSCs + AM group was lower than that of the NG group, but significantly higher than that of the PGA group and the AM group (p < 0.001). Muscle weight index was significantly higher in the AdMSCs + AM group compared to the PGA group (p < 0.05). It was observed that nerve regeneration was faster in the AdMSCs + AM group, and there was an earlier improvement in pin-prick score and sciatic functional index compared to the PGA group and the AM group. In conclusion, the biological conduit prepared from the AdMSCs sheet and AM is regarded as a new biological conduit that can be used as an alternative treatment method to nerve autograft in clinical applications.
