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

Decellularized vascular grafts (DVGs) are a promising alternative to synthetic prostheses for applications requiring long-term patency and biological integration. Here, we assessed porcine decellularized carotid arteries as vascular grafts using a detergent-enzymatic protocol. We removed cellular components while preserving native extracellular matrix architecture. Histology and immunohistochemistry confirmed effective removal of endothelial and smooth muscle cells, with intact collagen and elastin. Residual DNA content (32.6 ± 5.8 ng/mg) fell below the 50 ng/mg immunogenicity threshold. Mechanical testing showed tensile properties and burst pressure comparable to native vessels.
