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

Objective: To develop and evaluate tissue-engineered tubular constructs using homologous adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs), smooth muscle cells (SMCs), and decellularized fish swim bladder (DFSB) matrix for urinary diversion in a rabbit model. Methods: Rabbit ASCs and SMCs were isolated and expanded Results: All experimental animals survived until scheduled sacrifice with histological evidence of: (1) luminal multilayer urothelium, (2) organized smooth muscle tissue on abluminal surfaces, and (3) construct-wide neovascularization of varying diameters; IVU confirmed absence of urinary leakage, stricture, or obstruction. Conversely, all control animals died within 2 weeks post-operation; autopsy revealed urine leakage, extensive scar formation, and severe inflammation as mortality causes. Conclusion: Tissue-engineered tubular constructs fabricated from homologous ASCs, SMCs, and DFSB scaffold demonstrate feasibility as a viable urinary diversion alternative in rabbit models, showing functional tissue regeneration and superior outcomes versus acellular controls.
