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

The concept of Endothelial Progenitor Cells (EPCs) therapy for adult neovascularization has continuously received attention. They are believed to participate in endothelial repair and post natal angiogenesis due to their abilities in differentiating into endothelial cells and producing protective cytokines and growth factors. Abundant evidence supports the involvement of EPCs in capillary growth and in participating in the formation of collateral vessels, which lead to improved vascular perfusion and functional recovery in target tissue. Autologous EPC now is becoming a novel treatment option for therapeutic revascularization and vascular repair in ischemic diseases. However, various diseases such as diabetes, heart disease and ischemic diseases are related to EPC dysfunction and give rise to additional challenges of autologous EPC therapy. A novel strategy to enhance the number and function of EPCs is needed to be established to provide successful autologous EPCs therapy. Currently, clinical trials for the new generation of EPC therapy in treating peripheral ischemic diseases are underway. In this review we provide an overview and the limitations of current EPCs therapy with an introduction to the new strategies of next generation EPC therapy for more promising vascular and tissue regeneration therapy.
