Integrated biophysical matching of bacterial nanocellulose coronary artery bypass grafts towards bioinspired artery typical functions.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Revascularization via coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) to treat cardiovascular disease is established as one of the most important lifesaving surgical techniques worldwide. But the shortage in functionally self-adaptive autologous arteries leads to circumstances where the clinical reality must deal with fighting pathologies coming from the mismatching biophysical functionality of more available venous grafts. Synthetic biomaterial-based CABG grafts did not make it to the market yet, what is mostly due to technical hurdles in matching biophysical properties to the complex demands of the CABG niche. But bacterial Nanocellulose (BNC) Hydrogels derived by growing biofilms hold a naturally integrative character in function-giving properties by its freedom in designing form and intrinsic fiber architecture. In this study we use this integral to combine impacts on the luminal fiber matrix, biomechanical properties and the reciprocal stimulation of microtopography and induced flow patterns, to investigate biomimetic and artificial designs on their bio-functional effects. Therefore, we produced tubular BNC-hydrogels at distinctive designs, characterized the structural and biomechanical properties and subjected them to in vitro endothelial colonization in bioreactor assisted perfusion cultivation. Results showed clearly improved functional properties and gave an indication of successfully realized stimulation by artery-typical helical flow patterns.
