bFGF-Loaded PDA Microparticles Enhance Vascularization of Engineered Skin with a Concomitant Increase in Leukocyte Recruitment.

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
Engineered skin (ES) can serve as an advanced therapy for treatment of large full-thickness wounds, but delayed vascularization can cause ischemia, necrosis, and graft failure. To accelerate ES vascularization, this study assessed incorporation of polydopamine (PDA) microparticles loaded with different concentrations of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) into collagen scaffolds, which were subsequently seeded with human fibroblasts to create dermal templates (DTs), and then keratinocytes to create ES. DTs and ES were evaluated in vitro and following grafting to full-thickness wounds in immunodeficient mice. In vitro, metabolic activity of DTs was enhanced with PDA+bFGF, though this increase was not observed following seeding with keratinocytes to generate ES. After grafting, ES with bFGF-loaded PDA microparticles displayed dose-dependent increases in CD31-positive vessel formation vs. PDA-only controls (
