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

Due to their multi-lineage differentiation capacity, support of haematopoiesis, immunomodulation and secretion of proregenerative factors, mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are in the focus of intense research since decades. The literature is replete with reports on their potential in preclinical model systems. However, the heterogeneity of the primary cell population as starting material and the diverse protocols for isolation and cultivation are hampering progress in their clinical application. Consensus on common standards and harmonised isolation and characterisation protocols are important to ensure safety and efficacy. This review focuses on the recent scientific evidence of clinically relevant properties and on the speculative cardiomyogenic and hepatic differentiation potential of MSCs. Special emphasis is put on the importance of standardisation and harmonisation in clinical-scale manufacturing.
