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

Impaired cutaneous wound healing is a major complication in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM), leading to increased amputation and mortality rates in affected patients. Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) are widely used seed cells for promoted tissue regeneration to improve wound closure under diabetic conditions. However, ASCs-based therapies remain limited due to difficulties in maintaining cell quality during transplantation. To overcome this problem, extracellular matrix mimetic biomaterials have been developed for use in biomedical engineering field, including tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Herein, a biosynthesized arginine-glycine-aspartate amino acid residues (RGD motif, known as a cell adhesion motif)-containing elastin-like polypeptides (REPs) improved the efficacy of ASCs in enhancing wound closure and skin elasticity in diabetic wounds by promoting the expression of angiogenic growth factors. Therefore, REPs can be used as potential supplements to stem cell-based therapeutic approach to accelerate diabetic wound repair.
