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

The tendon-bone interface effectively transfers mechanical stress for movement, yet its regeneration presents significant clinical challenges due to its hierarchical structure and composition. Biomimetic strategies that replicate the distinctive characteristics have demonstrated potential for enhancing the healing process. However, there remains a challenge in developing a composite that replicates the nanostructure of the tendon-bone interface and embeds living cells. Here, we engineered a nanoscale biomimetic bilayer hydrogel embedded with tendon stem cells for tendon-bone interface healing. Specifically, the biomimetic hydrogel incorporates intra- and extrafibrillar mineralized collagen fibrils as well as non-mineralized collagen fibrils resembling the tendon-bone interface at the nanoscale. Furthermore, biomimetic mineralization with the presence of cells realizes living tendon-bone-like tissue constructs. In the
