Triple Helical-Peptides: Collagen-Mimicking Tools for Tissue Engineering.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Reproducing the biological cues naturally provided by collagen is a promising yet challenging approach to influence cell behavior in the field of tissue engineering. To mimic collagen, biomimetic peptides that self-assemble into the characteristic triple helix structure of collagen have been functionalized to biomaterials designed for tissue repair. These triple-helical peptides (THPs) contain recognition motifs for collagen-binding proteins (receptors expressed on the cell surface or secreted proteins), thus replicating the collagen interactions occurring in native tissues and triggering specific cellular responses. Here, we describe how THPs are synthesized, characterized, and covalently grafted into hydrogels commonly used in tissue engineering through two different approaches: maleimide conjugation and coupling using carbodiimides. This approach has led to significant improvements in cell adhesion, differentiation, function, and extracellular matrix deposition in biomaterials manufactured for regenerative medicine applications.
