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

Cell-based approaches are among the principal interventions in orthobiologics to improve tendon and ligament healing and to combat degenerative processes. The number of options available for investigation are expanding rapidly and investigators have an increasing number of cell types to choose from for research purposes. However, in part due to the current regulatory environment, the list of available cells at clinicians' disposal for therapeutic purposes is still rather limited. In this review, we present an overview of the main cellular categories in current use. Notable recent developments in cell-based approaches include the introduction of diverse sources of mesenchymal stem cells, pluripotent cells of extra-embryonic origin, and the emerging popularity of fully differentiated cells such as tenocytes and endothelial cells. Delivery strategies are discussed and a succinct discussion of the current regulatory environment in the United States is presented.
