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.
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
BACKGROUND The aims of this study were to compare the morphological, biochemical, and functional properties of reprogrammed bone marrow stem cell (BMSC)-derived arterial endothelial cells (AECs) and venous endothelial cells (VECs), following adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-stimulation in a mini pig animal model. MATERIAL AND METHODS Bone marrow aspiration was performed in six adult mini pigs. Harvested mononuclear cells were isolated, cultured, and treated with vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) (16 µg/ml). Transformed cells were characterized using immunofluorescence staining for CD31 and von Willebrandt factor (vWF) and expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS). Cell release of nitric oxide (cNO) was measured using spectrophotometry. Matrigel assays were used to investigate angiogenesis in transformed BMSCs. RESULTS Reprogrammed BMSCs in culture showed a typical cobblestone-like pattern of growth. Immunofluorescence staining was positive for CD31 and vWF expression. Expression of eNOS, using immunofluorescence staining and Western blot, showed no difference between the reprogrammed BMSCs and VECs. Spectrophotometric examination following stimulation with 10mmol/l ATP, showed comparable cNO release for reprogrammed BMSCs (10.87±1.76 pmol/106 cells/min) and VECs (13.23±2.16 pmol/10^6 cells/min), but reduced cNO release for AECS (3.44±0.75 pmol/10^6 cells/min). Matrigel assay for angiogenesis showed vascular tube formation of differentiated BMSC endothelial cells (grade 3.25). BMSCs cultured without VEGF did not demonstrate vascular tube formation. CONCLUSIONS The findings of this study showed that eNOS expression and release of NO could be used to show that BMSCs can be reprogrammed to functional VECs and AECs.
