Advanced Hydrogels in Fibrocartilage Regeneration of the Glenoid Labrum.
Review in Gels (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
Glenoid labral tears are relatively common orthopedic injuries in adults. Anatomically, the glenoid labrum is a fibrocartilaginous structure that contributes to shoulder stability and function. The treatment for labral injury may be conservative, such as activity modification and rest, or operative, depending on the extent of tissue damage. Hydrogels are polymeric networks with great potential in treating glenoid labral tears and other cartilage-related injuries. Hydrogels are highly biocompatible, hydrophilic, and non-immunogenic, with tunable mechanical properties that support nutrient diffusion, cell viability, and angiogenesis, making them well suited for cartilage regeneration. Hydrogels can deliver growth factors like TGF-β or PDGF and may be combined with peptides or adhesion molecules to enhance tissue integration, repair, and even physical support. This article introduces current treatment options for glenoid labral injuries, reviews the role of hydrogels in cartilage regeneration, and summarizes recent translational research focused on hydrogel-based labral repair.
