Enhancing ex vivo expansion of cord blood-derived unrestricted somatic stem cells for clinical applications.
Article in Cell proliferation, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectivesTo study effects of serum-containing medium (SCM) versus serum-free medium (SFM) and influence of seeding density, on rate of expansion of cord blood (CB) unrestricted somatic stem cells (USSCs), as a prerequisite for evaluating their therapeutic potential in ongoing clinical trials. MATERIAL AND
methodsIsolation, propagation and characterization of USSCs from CB samples were performed and followed by their passage 3 culture in SCM and SFM, at cell densities of 5, 50, 500 and 5000 cells/cm(2) .
resultsThe cells were CD44(+) , CD90(+) , CD73(+) , CD105(+) , CD34(-) , CD45(-) , and HLA-DR, with Oct4 & Sox2 gene expression; they were differentiated into osteoblasts and adipocytes. USSCs cultured in SCM had significantly higher population doubling levels (P < 0.01) than those cultured in SFM. Those cultured in SCM at 5 cells/cm(2) and those cultured in SFM at 50 cells/cm(2) had significantly higher population doubling (P < 0.01) levels than those cultured at higher cell densities.
conclusionsFor scaling up of USSCs from 106 (?) to 1012 (?) in 6 weeks, culturing of CB-derived cells of early passage (≤P3) in SCM at low cell seeding density (5 cells/cm(2) ) is suggested for increasing cell count with lower passaging frequency, followed by culture of expanded USSCs at 50 cells/cm(2) in SFM, to avoid undesirable effects of bovine serum in clinical applications.
