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

Although stem cells are promising candidates for cell replacement therapies, the vast majority are derived using animal sera, which has risk of being contaminated by animal viruses or toxins. To overcome these potential problems, we initially established multiple lines of stem cells from first-trimester human placenta (fPMSC), which were cultivated using human follicular fluid (hFF) instead of fetal bovine serum (FBS). FF provides a very important microenvironment for the development of oocytes. No differences were found in the general morphology, growth rate, karyotype, gene and surface expressions between placental MSCs cultured in 5 % hFF-supplemented medium (fPMSC-X) or 10 % FBS-supplemented medium (fPMSC). Differentiation experiments confirmed similar levels of potency in cells grown in either condition. Since hFF preserved the unique features of the stem cells and is free from potential pathogens, it should be considered as the main culture medium supplement for the propagation of human stem cells for clinical applications.
