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

Maxing Yigan formula (MYF) is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) prescription used for the treatment of OA for decades in China. However, the mechanism remains unknown. In this study, we developed a MYF-incorporated collagen sponge (MYF@CS) and investigated its cartilage regeneration effect and the underlying mechanism. In vitro experiments revealed that MYF significantly promoted cell viability, proliferation, and autophagy of OA chondrocytes. Furthermore, MYF@CS significantly enhanced chondrogenesis and cartilage regeneration, as assessed by macroscopic observation, the International Cartilage Repair Society (ICRS) visual histological score, and histological examination. Our findings suggest that MYF@CS could represent a significant therapeutic strategy for the treatment of OA.
