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

Peripheral nerve defects are a worldwide problem, and autologous nerve transplantation is currently the gold-standard treatment for them. Tissue-engineered nerve (TEN) grafts are widely considered promising methods for the same, and have attracted much attention. To improve repair, the incorporation of bionics into TEN grafts has become a focus of research. In this study, a novel bionic TEN graft with a biomimetic structure and composition is designed. For this purpose, a chitin helical scaffold is fabricated by means of mold casting and acetylation using chitosan as the raw material, following which a fibrous membrane is electrospun on the outer layer of the chitin scaffold. The lumen of the structure is filled with human bone mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular matrix and fibers to provide nutrition and topographic guidance, respectively. The prepared TEN graft is then transplanted to bridge 10 mm sciatic nerve defects in rats. Morphological and functional examination shows that the repair effects of the TEN grafts and autografts are similar. The bionic TEN graft described in this study shows great potential for application and offers a new way to repair clinical peripheral nerve defects.
