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

Available methods for differentiating stem cells into neurons require a large number of cytokines and neurotrophic factors, with complex steps and slow processes, and are inefficient to produce functional neurons and form synaptic contacts, which is expensive and impractical in clinical application. Here, we demonstrated a bioactive material, basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF)-chitosan controlled release system, for facilitating neuronal differentiation from NSCs and the functional maturation of the induced neurons with high efficiency. We illustrated by immunostaining that the neurons derived from NSCs expressed mature immunomarkers of interneurons and excitatory neurons. And we found by patch-clamp that the induced neurons exhibited diverse electrophysiological properties as well as formed functional synapses. In vivo, we implanted bFGF-chitosan into lesion area in traumatic brain injury (TBI) mice and similarly observed abundance of neuroblasts in SVZ and the presence of newborn functional neurons in injury area, which integrated into synaptic networks. Taken together, our efficient and rapid tissue engineering approach may be a potential method for the generation of functional neuronal lineage cells from stem cells and a therapy of brain injury and disease.
