Influence of Scaffold Structure and Biomimetic Properties on Adipose Stem Cell Homing in Personalized Reconstructive Medicine.
Review in Biomimetics (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Human adipose stem cells (ASCs) are multipotent cells expressing mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) markers that are capable of multilineage differentiation and secretion of bioactive factors. Their "homing" to injured tissues is mediated by chemokines, cytokines, adhesion molecules, and signaling pathways. Enhancing ASC homing is critical for improving regenerative therapies. Strategies include boosting chemotactic signaling, modulating immune responses to create a supportive environment, preconditioning ASCs with hypoxia or mechanical stimuli, co-culturing with supportive cells, applying surface modifications or genetic engineering, and using biomaterials to promote ASC recruitment, retention, and integration at injury sites. Scaffolds provide structural support and a biomimetic environment for ASC-based tissue regeneration. Natural scaffolds promote adhesion and differentiation but have mechanical limitations, while synthetic scaffolds offer tunable properties and controlled degradation. Functionalization with bioactive molecules improves the regenerative outcomes of different tissue types. Ceramic-based scaffolds, due to their strength and bioactivity, are ideal for bone healing. Composite scaffolds, combining polymers, ceramics, or metals, further optimize mechanical and biological properties, supporting personalized regenerative therapies. This review integrates concepts from cell biology, biomaterials science, and regenerative medicine to offer a comprehensive understanding of ASC homing and its impact on tissue engineering and clinical applications.
