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

Current strategies to accelerate hematopoietic reconstitution after transplantation include transplantation of greater numbers of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) or ex vivo expansion of harvested HSPCs before transplant. However, the number of cells available for transplantation is usually low, and strategies to expand HSPCs and maintain equivalent engraftment capability ex vivo are limited. We noted that activated granulocyte-derived cationic peptides positively primed responsiveness of HSPCs to a CXCL12 gradient. Accordingly, we noted that accelerated homing/engraftment of β-defensin-2, a well-known antimicrobial cationic peptide, primed bone marrow nucleated cells (BMNCs) compared to normal BMNCs after transplantation into lethally irradiated recipients. We envision that small cationic peptides, which primarily possess antimicrobial functions and are harmless to mammalian cells, could be applied to prime HSPCs before transplantation. This novel approach would be particularly important in cord blood transplantation, where the number of HSPCs available for transplantation is usually limited.
