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

Hydrogels are widely used in stem cell therapy due to their extensive tunability and resemblance to the extracellular matrix (ECM), which has a three-dimensional (3D) structure. These features enable various applications that enhance stem cell maintenance and function. However, fast and simple hydrogel fabrication methods are desirable for stem cells for efficient encapsulation and to reduce adverse effects on the cells. In this study, we present a one-pot double-crosslinked hydrogel consisting of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and collagen, which can be prepared without the multi-step sequential synthesis of each network, by using bio-orthogonal chemistry. To enhance the adipogenic differentiation efficiency of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs), we added degradable components within the hydrogel to regulate matrix stiffness through cell-mediated degradation. Bio-orthogonal reactions used for hydrogel gelation allow rapid gel formation for efficient cell encapsulation without toxic by-products. Furthermore, the hybrid network of synthetic (PEG) and natural (collagen) components demonstrated adequate mechanical strength and higher cell adhesiveness. Therefore, ADSCs grown within this hybrid hydrogel proliferated and functioned better than those grown in the single-crosslinked hydrogel. The degradable elements further improved adipogenesis in ADSCs with dynamic changes in modulus during culture and enabled the retrieval of differentiated cells for potential future applications.
