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

This study tested the hypothesis that xenogeneic human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cell (HUCDMSC) therapy would improve survival rates in rats with acute respiratory distress-syndrome (ARDS, induction by 48 h inhalation of 100% oxygen) and sepsis-syndrome (SS, induction by cecal-ligation and puncture) (ARDS-SS). Adult-male Sprague-Dawley rats were categorized into group 1 (sham-controls), group 2 (ARDS-SS), group 3 [ARDS-SS+HUCDMSC (1.2 ×106 cells administered 1 h after SS-induction)], and group 4 [ARDS-SS+HUCDMSC (1.2 ×106 cells administered 24 h after SS-induction)]. The mortality rate was higher in groups 2 and 4 than in groups 1 and 3 (all p<0.0001). The blood pressure after 28 h was lower in groups 2, 3 and 4 (p<0.0001) than in group 1. Albumin levels and percentages of inflammatory cells in broncho-alveolar lavage fluid, and the percentages of inflammatory and immune cells in circulation, were lowest in group 1, highest in group 2, and higher in group 3 than group 4 (all p<0.0001). The percentages of inflammatory cells in ascites and kidney parenchyma showed identical patterns, as did kidney injury scores (all p<0.0001). EarlyHUCDMSC therapy reduced rodent mortality after induced ARDS-SS.
