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

backgroundAcute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is the most common cause of respiratory failure among critically ill patients. Novel treatment strategies are required to address this common clinical problem. The application of exogenous adult stem cells was associated with a beneficial outcome in various pre-clinical models of ARDS. In the present study we evaluated the functional capacity and homing ability of bone marrow-derived progenitor cells (BMDPC) in vitro and investigated their potential as a treatment strategy in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ARDS.

resultsEvaluation of the BMDPC showed functional capacity to form endothelial outgrowth cell colonies, which stained positive for CD133 and CD31. Furthermore, DiI-stained BMDPC were demonstrated to home to injured lung tissue. Rats treated with BMDPC showed significantly reduced histopathological changes, a reduced expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 by the lung tissue, an inhibition of proinflammatory cytokine synthesis, a reduced weight loss and a reduced mortality (p < 0.03) compared to rats treated with LPS alone.

conclusionsThese findings suggest that the application of exogenous BMDPC can attenuate inflammation in LPS-induced ARDS and thereby reduce the severity of septic organ damage. Cell therapy strategies using adult stem cells might therefore become a novel and alternative option in ARDS therapy.
