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

Lower urinary tract symptoms can significantly impact quality of life. Current standard treatments are not always effective and are associated with complications and side effects. The discovery of stem cells led to research into cell-based therapies for treatment of disorders of voiding dysfunction. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells are particularly promising given their ability to differentiate into a variety of cell types. Recent studies have investigated bone marrow stem cells to treat a number of functional voiding pathologies including bladder outlet obstruction, neurogenic bladder, and stress urinary incontinence. Experiments in tissue regeneration have also attempted to create artificial bladders and urethras. The purpose of this article is to critically review the literature regarding the use of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in treatment of voiding dysfunction.
