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

Cell-laden structures play a pivotal role in various tissue engineering applications, particularly in tissue restoration. Interactions between cells within bioprinted structures are crucial for successful tissue development and regulation of stem cell fate through intricate cell-to-cell signaling pathways. In this study, we developed a new technique that combines polyethylene glycol (PEG)-infused submerged bioprinting with a stretching procedure. This approach facilitated the generation of fully aligned collagen structures consisting of myoblasts and a low concentration (2 wt%) of collagen to efficiently encourage muscle tissue regeneration. By adjusting several processing parameters, we obtained biologically safe and mechanically stable cell-laden collagen filaments with uniaxial alignment. Notably, the cell filaments exhibited markedly elevated cellular activities compared to those exhibited by conventional bioprinted filaments, even at similar cell densities. Moreover, when we implanted structures containing adipose stem cells into mice, we observed a significantly increased level of myogenesis compared to that in normally bioprinted struts. Thus, this promising approach has the potential to revolutionize tissue engineering by fostering enhanced cellular interactions and promoting improved outcomes in regenerative medicine.
