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

Spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) is a devastating progressive neurodegenerative disorder, for which no effective treatments have been developed. However, some studies have shown that an intracerebellar or intrathecal injection of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) was partially effective in some genetic mouse models of cerebellar ataxia such as SCA1 and Lurcher mutant. MSCs likely exert their therapeutic efficacy by secreting innate factors to induce neuronal growth and synaptic connection and reduce apoptosis. In this review, we introduce the therapeutic influence of MSCs on each mouse model for cerebellar ataxia and the possible mechanisms underlying the action of MSCs. We also introduce studies on the safety and effectiveness of umbilical cord MSCs for patients with SCA.
