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

Late-outgrowth endothelial colony-forming cells (ECFCs), a type of circulating endothelial progenitor cell (EPC), may contribute to pulmonary angiogenesis during development. Cord blood ECFCs from preterm newborns proliferate more rapidly than term ECFCs but are more susceptible to the adverse effects of hyperoxia. Recent studies suggest that bone marrow-derived EPCs protect against experimental lung injury via paracrine mechanisms independent of vascular engraftment. To determine whether human umbilical cord blood ECFCs from preterm and term newborns have therapeutic benefit in experimental neonatal lung injury, we isolated cord blood ECFCs from full-term and preterm newborns and prepared ECFC-conditioned medium (CM) to test its therapeutic benefit on fetal pulmonary artery endothelial cell (PAEC) proliferation and function as well as alveolar type 2 (AT2) cell growth. PAECs and AT2 cells were isolated from late-gestation fetal sheep. Additionally, we administered both ECFCs and ECFC-CM to bleomycin-exposed newborn rats, an experimental model of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Both term ECFC-CM and preterm ECFC-CM promoted cell growth and angiogenesis in vitro. However, when ECFC-CM was collected during exposure to mild hyperoxia, the benefit of preterm ECFC-CM was no longer observed. In the bleomycin model of BPD, treatment with ECFC-CM (or CM from mature EC) effectively decreased right ventricular hypertrophy but had no effect on alveolar septation. We conclude that term ECFC-CM is beneficial both in vitro and in experimental BPD. During oxidative stress, preterm ECFC-CM, but not term ECFC-CM, loses its benefit. The inability of term ECFC-CM to promote alveolarization may limit its therapeutic potential.
