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

Despite advancements in bio-manufacturing, the fabrication of large-scale vascularized tissue with heterogeneous cells remains a daunting challenge. To address this challenge, the reverse engineered structured tissue (REST) three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting method was proposed. This strategy enables the seeding and subsequent assembly of multiple tissue-specific constituent cells onto a robust, flexible, 3D biomimetic vascular scaffold with long-term perfusion capability. The material choices for the vessel network and seeding cells could be decoupled, and separate co-culture of multiple seeding cells in a customized bioreactor could be realized. The cellular layers could be reassembled into an engineered tissue by manually folding the robust vessels. Centimeter-scale vascularized skin-flap-like tissues that comprise epidermal, dermal, and adipose layers were engineered with an
