Auricular Chondrocytes as a Cell Source for Scaffold-Free Elastic Cartilage Tissue Engineering.
Article in Tissue engineering. Part C, Methods, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Current tissue engineering (TE) methods utilize chondrocytes primarily from costal or articular sources. Despite the robust mechanical properties of neocartilages sourced from these cells, the lack of elasticity and invasiveness of cell collection from these sources negatively impact clinical translation. These limitations invited the exploration of naturally elastic auricular cartilage as an alternative cell source. This study aimed to determine if auricular chondrocytes (AuCs) can be used for TE scaffold-free neocartilage constructs and assess their biomechanical properties. Neocartilages were successfully generated from a small quantity of primary neonatal AuCs of three minipig donors (
