Does mesenchymal stem cell population in umbilical cord blood vary at different gestational periods?
Article in Indian journal of pediatrics, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
objectiveTo identify and quantitatively determine Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in the umbilical cord blood (UCB) of neonates born at different gestational periods.
methodsUCB was collected at birth in neonates of three different gestational groups. The mononuclear cells (MNCs) were phenotypically analyzed by flow cytometer.
resultsThe yield of total MNCs did not differ much with gestation; the average values were 22.6 ± 6.48 × 106 cells/ml. The MSCs were significantly higher in the lower gestation group. These were 0.0219 ± 0.012 %, 0.0044 ± 0.003 % and 0.0022 ± 0.003 % in 28 to 31 wk, 32 to 35 wk and >36 wk, respectively (P = 0.00). There was a significant inverse correlation between the gestational age and the presence of MSCs with a correlation co-efficient of -0.54 (P = 0.0001).
conclusionsThe MSCs population was significantly higher in infants born at lesser gestation than those born at term gestation.
