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

A significant number of clinical trials have been undertaken to explore the use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for the treatment of several diseases such as Crohn's disease, diabetes, bone defects, myocardial infarction, stroke etc., Due to their efficiency in homing to the tissue injury sites, their differentiation potential, the capability to secrete a large amount of trophic factors and their immunomodulatory effects, MSCs are becoming increasingly popular and expected to be one of the promising therapeutic approaches. However, challenges associated with the isolation of pure MSC populations, their culture and expansion, specific phenotypic characterization, multi-potential differentiation and challenges of efficient transplantation limit their usage. The current strategies of cell-based therapies emphasize introducing beneficial genes, which will improve the therapeutic ability of MSCs and have better homing efficiency. The continuous improvement in gene transfer technologies has broad implications in stem cell biology. Although viral vectors are efficient vehicles for gene delivery, construction of viral vectors with desired genes, their safety and immunogenicity limit their use in clinical applications. We review current gene delivery approaches, including viral and plasmid vectors, for transfecting MSC with beneficial genes. The review also discusses the use of a few emerging technologies that could be used to improve the transfer/induction of desirable genes for cell therapy.
