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

Hydrogel is widely used as a scaffolding material for tissue engineering due to its excellent cytocompatibility and potential for biofunctionalization. However, its poor mechanical property limits its further application. Fabrication of fiber-reinforced hydrogel composite scaffolds has emerged as a solution to overcome this problem. However, existing strategies usually produce nonporous composite scaffolds, where the interfiber pores are completely filled with hydrogel. This design can hinder oxygen and nutrient exchange between seeded cells and the culture medium, thereby limiting cell invasion and colonization within the scaffold. In this study, sodium alginate (SA) hydrogel was exclusively grafted onto the surface of the constituent fibers of the melt electrowritten scaffold while preserving the porous structure. The grafted hydrogel amount and pore size were precisely controlled by adjusting the SA concentration and the crosslinking ratio (SA: CaCl
