Multilayered blow-spun vascular prostheses with luminal surfaces in Nano/Micro range: the influence on endothelial cell and platelet adhesion.
Article in Journal of biological engineering, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
backgroundIn this study, two types of polyurethane-based cylindrical multilayered grafts with internal diameters ≤ 6 mm were produced by the solution blow spinning (SBS) method. The main aim was to create layered-wall prostheses differing in their luminal surface morphology. Changing the SBS process parameters, i.e. working distance, rotational speed, volume, and concentration of the polymer solution allowed to obtain structures with the required morphologies. The first type of prostheses, termed Nano, possessed nanofibrous luminal surface, and the second type, Micro, presented morphologically diverse luminal surface, with both solid and microfibrous areas.
resultsThe results of mechanical tests confirmed that designed prostheses had high flexibility (Young's modulus value of about 2.5 MPa) and good tensile strength (maximum axial load value of about 60 N), which meet the requirements for vascular prostheses. The influence of the luminal surface morphology on platelet adhesion and the attachment of endothelial cells was investigated. Both surfaces did not cause hemolysis in contact with blood, the percentage of platelet-occupied area for Nano and Micro surfaces was comparable to reference polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) surface. However, the change in morphology of surface-adhered platelets between Nano and Micro surfaces was visible, which might suggest differences in their activation level. Endothelial coverage after 1, 3, and 7 days of culture on flat samples (2D model) was higher on Nano prostheses as compared with Micro scaffolds. However, this effect was not seen in 3D culture, where cylindrical prostheses were colonized using magnetic seeding method.
conclusionsWe conclude the produced scaffolds meet the material and mechanical requirements for vascular prostheses. However, changing the morphology without changing the chemical modification of the luminal surface is not sufficient to achieve the appropriate effectiveness of endothelialization in the 3D model.
