Collagen-Based Scaffolds for Volumetric Muscle Loss Regeneration.
Review in Polymers, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Volumetric muscle loss (VML) is a serious problem in healthcare that requires innovative solutions. Collagen and its derivatives are promising biomaterials for muscle tissue replacement due to their high biocompatibility, biodegradability, and lack of toxicity. This review comprehensively discusses collagen from various sources, its structural characteristics, cross-linking methods to obtain hydrogels, and approaches to incorporating various therapeutic molecules to create a biocomposite system with controlled release. Collagen-based scaffolds are promising constructs in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. They can both perform their function independently and act as a depot for various biologically active substances (drugs, growth factors, genetic material, etc.). Collagen-based scaffolds for muscle volume restoration are three-dimensional constructs that support cell adhesion and proliferation and provide controlled release of therapeutic molecules. Various mechanical and biological properties of scaffolds can be achieved by cross-linking agents and bioactive molecules incorporated into the structure. This review highlights recent studies on collagen-based hydrogels for restoration of volumetric muscle loss.
