Harvesting prevascularized smooth muscle cell sheets from common polystyrene culture dishes.
Article in PloS one, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Cell sheet engineering has recently emerged as a promising strategy for scaffold-free tissue engineering. However, the primary method of harvesting cell sheets using temperature-responsive dishes has potential limitations. Here we report a novel cell sheet technology based on a coculture system in which SMCs are cocultured with EPCs on common polystyrene dishes. We found that an intact and highly viable cell sheet could be harvested using mechanical methods when SMCs and EPCs were cocultured on common polystyrene dishes at a ratio of 6:1 for 5 to 6 days; the method is simple, cost-effective and highly repeatable. Moreover, the cocultured cell sheet contained capillary-like networks and could secrete a variety of angiogenic factors. Finally, in vivo studies proved that the cocultured cell sheets were more favorable for the fabrication of vascularized smooth muscle tissues compared to single SMC sheets. This study provides a promising avenue for smooth muscle tissue engineering.
