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

Rotator cuff tears are common among physically active individuals and often require surgical intervention owing to their limited self-healing capacity. This study proposes a new bioprinting approach using bone- and tendon tissue-specific bioinks derived from decellularized extracellular matrix, supplemented with hydroxyapatite and TGF-β/poly(vinyl alcohol) to fabricate engineered tendon-to-bone complex tissue. To achieve this goal, a core-shell nozzle system attached to a bioprinter enables the effective and simultaneous fabrication of aligned tendon tissue, a gradient tendon-bone interface (TBI), and a mechanically improved bone region, mimicking the native tendon-to-bone structure.
