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 human meniscus is a zonal fibrocartilage characterized by inner-outer gradients in matrix composition and outer vascularity, essential for mechanical function and tissue integration. However, these hierarchical features are rarely reproduced in current meniscal substitutes, limiting durability and biological integration after repair. Here, we developed a triphasic scaffold composed of a demineralized bone matrix (DBM) framework integrated with regional decellularized meniscus extracellular matrix (DMECM) using riboflavin-mediated photo-crosslinking. This strategy enabled spatial localization of zonal DMECM compartments within a robust scaffold. The zonally patterned DBM + DMECM scaffold preserved interconnected porosity and mechanical stability, supported mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) adhesion and guided region-dependent fibrochondrogenic differentiation
