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

During human development, stem cells establish themselves in specific anatomic locations or niches. The niche harbors the stem cells, and regulates how stem cells proliferate. The interaction between stem cells and their niche affects stem cell function, and offers an opportunity to improve the marrow microenvironment. Osteoblasts produce hematopoietic growth factors and are activated by parathyroid hormone (PTH). A calcium sensing receptor, expressed by hematopoietic stem cells, regulates the niche and can be targeted to increase stem cell numbers. Therefore, drugs that affect osteoblast function or target calcium receptors may be useful for stem cell mobilization and engraftment. In this review, the biology of the stem cell niche and the potential therapeutic manipulations of the stem cell niche are reviewed. PTH is in clinical trials for patients who have not mobilized autologous stem cells well. The limiting cell numbers for adult cord blood transplantation increase the risk of infection, and PTH is currently in a clinical trial following cord blood transplantation in an effort to improve engraftment and immune reconstitution.
