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

Myocardial ischemia triggers a limited angiogenic response, part of the remodeling process that is insufficient to avoid further functional impairment. Several strategies have been evaluated to regenerate myocardial vascularization after ischemic injury such as transmyocardial laser revascularization and gene therapy. Attention has recently been focused on the potential of cell therapy to induce angiogenesis. Enhancing myocardial neovascularization is a major goal of myocardial cell transplantation because it would provide patients, who cannot undergo conventional revascularization, with an alternative therapy. Additionally, neovascularization would provide the implanted cells with adequate microenvironment to enhance survival and function. This short review gives an overview of the effect of various cell transplantation strategies on myocardial neovascularization. It suggests that in order to optimize myocardial neovascularization induced by cell therapy, future experiments should focus on the contribution of exogenous and endogenous stem cells to new vessels formation, and on the identification of the molecular pathways involved in the process.
