Research advance of 3D printing for articular cartilage regeneration.
Review in Regenerative medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Articular cartilage lesion frequently leads to dysfunction and the development of degenerative diseases, posing a significant public health challenge due to the limited self-healing capacity of cartilage tissue. Current surgical treatments, including marrow stimulation techniques and osteochondral autografts/allografts, have limited efficacy or have significant drawbacks, highlighting the urgent need for alternative strategies. Advances in 3D printing for cartilage regeneration have shown promising potential in creating cartilage-mimicking constructs, thereby opening new possibilities for cartilage repair. In this review, we summarize current surgical treatment methods and their limitations for addressing articular cartilage lesion, various 3D printing strategies and their features in cartilage tissue engineering, seed cells from different sources, and different types of biomaterials. We also explore the benefits, current challenges, and future research directions for 3D printing in the treatment of articular cartilage lesion within the field of cartilage tissue engineering.
