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

The skin, as the body's largest organ, plays vital protective and regulatory roles, making it a key target in regenerative medicine. However, current skin models often lack patient specificity and fail to recapitulate native extracellular matrix (ECM) composition, limiting their clinical relevance. This study presents a 3D-bioprinted skin model using a patient-derived decellularized ECM (pddECM) bioink combined with keratin-alginate (KA) bioink, mimicking native skin architecture and function. The pddECM supports high viability of human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs), promoting collagen I production and robust ECM remodeling, while the KA bioink enhances basal keratinocyte activation and cornification. The construct exhibits improved cell migration and angiogenesis, contributing to effective tissue integration and reduced hypoxic stress. Cytokine profiling reveals upregulation of ICAM-1 and complement C5, which are associated with enhanced keratinocyte motility and rapid matrix remodeling, while downregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-4 and IL-8) suggests a favorable, fibrosis-suppressive environment. In vivo, GelMA and GelMA+pddECM scaffolds accelerated wound closure without local or systemic toxicity, preserving dermal thickness and inducing migrating epidermal tongue (MET) expression. This patient-specific, bioactive skin model holds strong potential as a next-generation platform for personalized wound healing, drug screening, and high-fidelity skin grafting in translational tissue engineering.
