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

Tendon injuries pose significant clinical challenges due to complex structure and limited healing capacity. Decellularized Extracellular Matrix (dECM) offers a promising solution by replicating the native tendon microenvironment and promoting regeneration. This review summarizes the role of Extracellular Matrix (ECM), ongoing trends in the decellularization methods, as well as their integration with emerging technologies such as 3D printing, hybrid composite scaffold and hydrogels. Preclinical results and translational challenges are discussed. Overall, the review on the dECM-based scaffold strategies offer a compelling overview in understanding the tendon tissue engineering and their potential for clinical translation.
