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

Articular cartilage is difficult to regenerate. It often leads to osteoarthritis after injury, which seriously affects the quality of life of patients. Presently, the clinical treatments of articular cartilage injury have certain limitations. With the development of tissue engineering, cartilage repair becomes possible. Different types of bionic scaffolds have shown great application potential in cartilage repair. We reviewed the characteristics of ideal bionic scaffolds, including biocompatibility, biodegradability, mechanical and structural properties, bioactivity and functionality. We also summarized the latest research progress of different bionic scaffolds in recent years, hoping to provide a reference for the design of bionic scaffolds with stable performance and definite efficacy, and help them to be gradually applied in clinical practice.
