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

backgroundCryopreservation is a crucial procedure for safeguarding cells or other biological constructs, showcasing considerable potential for applications in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

aimsThis study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of different cryopreservation conditions on human cells viability.

methodsA set of cryopreserved data from Department of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine (DTERM) cell bank were analyse for cells attachment after 24 h being revived. The revived cells were analysed based on different cryopreservation conditions which includes cell types (skin keratinocytes and fibroblasts, respiratory epithelial, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (MSC); cryo mediums (FBS + 10% DMSO; commercial medium); storage durations (0 to > 24 months) and locations (tank 1-2; box 1-5), and revival methods (direct; indirect methods). Human dermal fibroblasts (HDF) were then cultured, cryopreserved in different cryo mediums (HPL + 10% DMSO; FBS + 10% DMSO; Cryostor) and stored for 1 and 3 months. The HDFs were revived using either direct or indirect method and cell number, viability and protein expression analysis were compared.

resultsIn the analysis cell cryopreserved data; fibroblast cells; FBS + 10% DMSO cryo medium; storage duration of 0-6 months; direct cell revival; storage in vapor phase of cryo tank; had the highest number of vials with optimal cell attachment after 24 h revived. HDFs cryopreserved in FBS + 10% DMSO for 1 and 3 months with both revival methods, showed optimal live cell numbers and viability above 80%, higher than other cryo medium groups. Morphologically, the fibroblasts were able to retain their phenotype with positive expression of Ki67 and Col-1. HDFs cryopreserved in FBS + 10% DMSO at 3 months showed significantly higher expression of Ki67 (97.3% ± 4.62) with the indirect revival method, while Col-1 expression (100%) was significantly higher at both 1 and 3 months compared to other groups.

conclusionIn conclusion, fibroblasts were able to retain their characteristics after various cryopreservation conditions with a slight decrease in viability that may be due to the thermal-cycling effect. However, further investigation on the longer cryopreservation periods should be conducted for other types of cells and cryo mediums to achieve optimal cryopreservation outcomes.
