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

Crosstalk between nerves and blood vessels plays a crucial role in flap development, injury repair, and homeostasis maintenance. However, in most flap transplantation strategies, the interactions between nerves and blood vessels have been ignored, leading to unsatisfactory repair effects. In this study, highly sprouting organoid-like neurovascular spheroids (NVUs) with P34HB porous microsphere cores embedding in a supportive microenvironment of Gelatin Methacryloyl hydrogel are developed. Cell-laden porous microspheres successfully recapitulated neurovascular coupling by providing a biomimetic extracellular microenvironment for neural and vascular cells at an in vivo cell density. The results demonstrated that neurovascular spheres formed complex vascular plexuses and secreted extracellular matrix, improving in vivo regeneration of skin flap. Autophagy activation regulated by nerves is detected along with the assembly of vascular networks, suggesting its role in neovascularization. By incorporating fibroblasts, highly biomimetic organoid-like models composed of dermis, vasculature, and innervation are facilely developed to mimic dermal tissues. This stable and highly reproducible in vitro model can be utilized for organ repair and mechanistic exploration.
