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

Highly purified proteoglycan (PG) extracted from the nasal cartilage of salmon heads was applied to the ex vivo expansion of hematopoietic progenitor cells prepared from human umbilical cord blood in serum-free cultures supplemented with the combination of early-acting cytokines, thrombopoietin (TPO), interleukin-3 (IL-3) and stem cell factor (SCF). PG showed no promoting effects on the cell proliferation rate; however, they promoted the generation of progenitor cells for granulocyte-macrophages, erythrocytes and/or megakaryocytes in culture with TPO alone or SCF plus TPO. However, no promoting effect was observed in a combination of IL-3 plus SCF, which showed the highest cell proliferation rate. PG failed to promote the generation of mixed colony-forming units (i.e. the relatively immature cells in hematopoiesis). These results suggest that PG acts on the relatively mature stem/progenitor cells, and may function as a regulatory factor in the differentiation pathway of hematopoiesis.
