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

Magnesium (Mg)-based conduits have gained more attention in repairing peripheral nerve defects. However, they are limited due to poor corrosion resistance and rapid degradation rate. To tackle this issue, glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF)- Gelatin methacryloyl (Gel)/hydroxylapatite (HA)-Mg nerve conduit was developed and implanted in sciatic nerve defect model in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. The sciatic functional index measurement showed that the GDNF-Gel/HA-Mg nerve conduit effectively promoted the recovery of sciatic nerve function. The pathological examination results showed that there were more regenerated nerve tissues in GDNF-Gel/HA-Mg group, with a higher number of regenerating axons, and the thickness of the myelin sheath was significantly larger than that of control group (NC group). Immunofluorescence results revealed that the GDNF-Gel/HA-Mg conduit significantly promoted the expression of genes associated with nerve repair. RNA-seq and molecular test results indicated that GDNF-Gel/HA-Mg might be involved in the repair of peripheral nerve defects by regulating PPAR-γ/RhoA/ROCK signaling pathway.
