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

Conservation of the genetic diversity through skin and cartilage biobanks represents an essential strategy for maintaining biodiversity. Biobanks for the wild species of the order Rodentia have been little studied. Considering that the cryopreservation technique has specific relationships with the tissue and species of interest, we propose investigating different techniques for preserving tissue integrity and cell viability after cartilage and skin culture from Spix's yellow-toothed cavies. Subsequently, two techniques [solid-surface vitrification (SSV) vs. slow freezing (SF)] were used for cartilage and skin cryopreservation. Tissues not subjected to cryopreservation were used as controls. All tissues were evaluated for morphology and proliferation by histological techniques. Moreover, fragments were cultured, and cells were evaluated for viability, proliferation, metabolism, and apoptosis. Regardless of the cryopreservation technique, no differences were observed for the thickness of the epidermis, dermis, skin, spinous and basal layers, fibroblasts, and proliferative activity regarding the number of nucleolar organizer regions (NOR). SSV ensured better maintenance of epidermal cells, normal chondrocytes, filled gaps, collagen fibers, proliferative activity by NOR area/cell, and reduced perinuclear halos and empty gaps compared to SF. SF ensured the conservation of corneum thickness compared to the control. Although both techniques promoted cell recovery after culture, cells from SF resulted in better subconfluence time and day with cell growth around fragments compared to SSV. In conclusion, both cryopreservation techniques resulted in viable cells after culture. However, SSV promoted better maintenance of tissue morphological integrity, and SF ensured the preservation of all cell quality parameters in Spix's yellow-toothed cavies.
