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

Progress in understanding the cellular and molecular biology of the immune system, in the second half of the 20(th) century brings the transplantation of replacement organs and tissues in clinical reality to cure disease. Immunosuppressive agents that are part of nearly every transplantation procedure, are toxic to some extent and their chronic use predisposes the patient to the development of infection and cancer. Alternatives to immunosuppression include modulation of host immune system to reduce the immune response and the induction of a state of immunologic tolerance. Induction of hematopoietic mixed chimerism through donor bone marrow transplantation offers a promising approach for tolerance induction as a prelude to organ transplantation. Furthermore, mesenchymal stromal cells have important effects on the host immune system and possess immune modulation properties that make them attractive for potential use in organ transplantation as immunosuppressant. Both modalities might potentially provide novel therapeutic options for treatment/prevention of rejection and/or repair of organ allografts through their multifaceted properties. In this review, evidences for the tolerogenic properties and mechanisms of hematopoietic mixed chimerism as well as mesenchymal stromal cells effects on allograft surveillance are summarized.
