Figure 6From: Comparison of articular cartilage repair with different hydrogel-human umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cell composites in a rat modelSemiquantitative analysis of repair tissue at the articular cartilage defects between hUCB-MSC + hydrogel (experimental knee) and hydrogel only (control knee) groups. (A) Overall score; (B) Nature of the predominant tissue; (C) Structural characteristics; (D) Freedom from cellular changes of degeneration; (E) Freedom from degenerative changes in adjacent cartilage. Statistical difference is denoted by *P <0.05.Back to article page
