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

Failure to adequately reconstruct the tendon-to-bone interface constitutes the primary etiology underlying rotator cuff retear after surgery. The purpose of this study is to construct a dynamic chondroitin sulfate and chitosan hydrogel scaffold (CHS) with bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2), then seed tendon stem cells (TSCs) on BMP2-CHS for the rotator cuff reconstruction of tendon-to-bone interface. In this dynamic hydrogel system, the scaffold could not only have good biocompatibility and degradability but also significantly promote the proliferation and differentiation of TSCs. The ability of BMP2-CHS combined with TSCs to promote regeneration of tendon-to-bone interface was further verified in the rabbit rotator cuff tear model. The results showed that BMP2-CHS combined with TSCs could induce considerable collagen, fibrocartilage, and bone arrangement and growth at the tendon-to-bone interface and promote the biomechanical properties. Overall, TSCs seeded on CHS with BMP2 can enhance tendon-to-bone healing and provide a new possibility for improving the poor prognosis of rotator cuff surgery.
