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

Skin injuries pose a significant medical challenge, particularly deep, extensive full thickness skin wounds that do not heal properly. These wounds often lack sensory nerves, which are crucial for skin sensitivity. The development of pre-innervated skin substitutes containing nerve cells offers a promising solution to enhance skin sensitivity in transplanted areas. For the production of such skin substitutes, direct transdifferentiation of fibroblasts into iNeurons using small molecules offers a fast and efficient approach.In this chapter, we provide a method of human dermis derived fibroblast transdifferentiation into iNeurons, and culture of iNeurons in a collagen type 1 hydrogel with a detailed protocol establishing a 3D model of pre-innervated skin substitutes. This hydrogel can further be used for development of pre-innervated dermal skin substitutes for clinical application, for investigation of disease mechanisms and drug screening.
