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

Peripheral nerve injuries (PNIs) are common and often result in sensorimotor deficits, chronic pain and decreased quality of life. While the peripheral nervous system has greater regenerative capacity than the central nervous system, recovery is often limited by intrinsic changes in the nerve and muscle. This review summarizes the process of nerve regeneration, with a focus on the role of the vasculature, following PNI and examines current bioengineering approaches to enhance peripheral nerve regeneration through modification of the nerve microenvironment and optimization of neurovascular interactions. The primary areas of translational research discussed in this review include vascularized nerve grafts, nerve conduits and scaffolds, bioactive peptides, nanoparticles, extracellular vesicles, stem cells, and gene therapy.
