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

We investigated whether transplantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC) with induced BMSC (iBMSC) or uninduced BMSC (uBMSC) into the myocardium could improve the performance of post-infarcted rat hearts. BMSCs were specified by flowcytometry. IBMSCs were cocultured with rat cardiomyocyte before transplantation. Cells were injected into borders of cardiac scar tissue 1 week after experimental infarction. Cardiac performance was evaluated by echocardiography at 1, 2, and 4 weeks after cellular or PBS injection. Langendorff working-heart and histological studies were performed 4 weeks after treatment. Myogenesis was detected by quantitative PCR and immunofluorescence. Echocardiography showed a nearly normal ejection fraction (EF) in iBMSC-treated rats and all sham control rats but a lower EF in all PBS-treated animals. The iBMSC-treated heart, assessed by echocardiography, improved fractional shortening compared with PBS-treated hearts. The coronary flow (CF) was decreased obviously in PBS and uBMSC-treated groups, but recovered in iBMSC-treated heart at 4 weeks (P < 0.01). Immunofluorescent microscopy revealed co-localization of Superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO)-labeled transplanted cells with cardiac markers for cardiomyocytes, indicating regeneration of damaged myocardium. These data provide strong evidence that iBMSC implantation is of more potential to improve infarcted cardiac performance than uBMSC treatment. It will open new promising therapeutic opportunities for patients with post-infarction heart failure.
