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

Massive bone allograft decellularized by perfusion is a solution for large bone defect reconstructions. Perfusion-based decellularization offers a solution by removing cellular components while preserving the non-immunogenic matrix. This study evaluates the in vivo integration and mechanical properties of perfusion-decellularized bone grafts compared to "fresh-frozen" grafts, both before implantation and after explantation. Standardized porcine femoral grafts were categorized into non-irradiated, irradiated, and explanted groups, with half undergoing perfusion decellularization. Biomechanical tests, including screw pull-out test, compression, and 3-point bending test, were performed. Results indicate that while decellularization increases graft brittleness, Vickers indentation and compression tests showed no significant differences between groups. In our study, decellularization reduced the mechanical strength of allografts both before and after implantation. However, since the risk of rupture occurred only under mechanical loads exceeding the physiological range, perfusion-decellularized bone grafts remain a valid strategy for bone repair.
