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

It is recognized that Fibroblast Growth Factor 4 (FGF-4) could not only increase the proliferation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), but also induce BMSCs into hepatocyte-like cells in vitro. However, the role of FGF4 played in liver regeneration in vivo is unclear. This study constructed FGF4 overexpressing BMSCs and then transplanted them into cirrhotic rats to investigate the role of FGF4 played in liver regeneration. The results showed that FGF4 promoted the location of the BMSCs only at the early stage, and more proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) and Jagged-1 positive hepatocytes were found in the cirrhotic rats. This study indicated that FGF4 transduced BMSCs contributed to liver regeneration might by the transplanted microenvironment.
