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

introductionWith prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in worldwide, the strategies to recover renal function via tissue regeneration could provide alternatives to kidney replacement therapies. However, due to relatively low reproducibility of renal basal cells and limited bioactivities of implanted biomaterials along with the high probability of substance-inducible inflammation and immunogenicity, kidney tissue regeneration could be challenging.

objectivesTo exclude various side effects from cell transplantations, in this study, we have induced extracellular vesicles (EVs) incorporated cell-free hybrid PMEZ scaffolds.

methodsHybrid PMEZ scaffolds incorporating essential bioactive components, such as ricinoleic acid grafted Mg(OH)

resultsWith functionalities of Mg(OH)

conclusionOur study has proved the combinatory bioactivities of the biodegradable PLGA-based multiplexed scaffold for kidney tissue regeneration in 5/6 nephrectomy mouse representing a severe CKD model. The optimal microenvironments for the morphogenetic formations of renal tissues and functional restorations have successfully achieved the combinatory bioactivities of remarkable components for PMEZ/mEV, which could be a promising therapeutic alternative for CKD treatment.
