Early biological reactions to a novel hybrid knit fabric inducing autologous tissue ingrowth implanted in a small infant.
Article in General thoracic and cardiovascular surgery cases, 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
back groundPatch augmentation of the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) is frequently required in pediatric patients with stenosis or atresia affecting the right ventricle-to-pulmonary artery continuity. However there have been no ideal patch materials for pediatric patients. CASE PRESENTATION: A 1-month-old infant with pulmonary atresia with an intact ventricular septum underwent surgical pulmonary valvotomy and RVOT reconstruction using a novel hybrid wrap-knitted patch designed for autologous tissue ingrowth. Ten months postoperatively, for recurrent severe pulmonary valve stenosis, the patient underwent repeat RVOT reconstruction. Histological examination of the excised hybrid patch revealed that both surfaces were covered with regenerated tissue composed of smooth muscle cells, blood vessels, and collagen fibers. Transmission electron microscopy confirmed that the regenerated tissue contained feature mature fibroblasts and capillaries, demonstrating sufficient development of regenerated tissue.
conclusionsHistological findings of the hybrid wrap-knit fabric patch excised in redo surgery 10 months after the initial surgery showed potential macrophage-fibroblast interaction, promoting tissue remodeling in the new fabric.
