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

Human engineered tissues hold great promise for therapeutic tissue regeneration and repair. Yet, development of these technologies often stalls at the stage of in vivo studies due to the complexity of engineered tissue formulations, which are often composed of diverse cell populations and material elements, along with the tedious nature of in vivo experiments. We introduce a "plug and play" platform called parallelized host apposition for screening tissues in vivo (PHAST). PHAST enables parallelized in vivo testing of 43 three-dimensional microtissues in a single 3D-printed device. Using PHAST, we screen microtissue formations with varying cellular and material components and identify formulations that support vascular graft-host inosculation and engineered liver tissue function in vivo. Our studies reveal that the cellular population(s) that should be included in engineered tissues for optimal in vivo performance is material dependent. PHAST could thus accelerate development of human tissue therapies for clinical regeneration and repair.
