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

Different types of bioartificial corneas have been generated by tissue engineering through combining cells, biomaterials, and bioactive molecules. Orthotypical corneal cells can be obtained from corneal biopsies, and include epithelial, stromal, and endothelial cells, whereas heterotypical cells are obtained from alternative cell sources with corneal differentiation potential, such as mesenchymal stem cells. In turn, two main types of biomaterials have been applied to corneal tissue engineering: those generated by the decellularization of natural tissues and biomaterials generated
