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

Nerve regeneration after peripheral nerve injury (PNI) depends on exogenous and endogenous pro-healing signals in the microenvironment. Maintaining immune system homeostasis and remodeling the regenerative microenvironment are crucial prerequisites for promoting nerve regeneration. Here, a double-layer PSM/Gel-SC(IL-4) nerve guide conduit was fabricated by photocrosslinking poly (ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) and methacrylic acid-sodium alginate (SAMA) hydrogel as the outer layer, with GelMA encapsulating IL-4 overexpressing Schwann cells as the inner layer. PSM/Gel-SC(IL-4) conduit enabled the sustained release of IL-4, inducing pro-healing macrophages polarization through JAK1/STAT6 pathway
