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
The occurrence of pelvic floor dysfunctional disease (PFD) is closely related with elasticity, toughness, and functional changes of the connective tissue of the pelvic support tissue. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) have been confirmed to have the capacity to differentiate into a variety of cell types such as osteoblasts, chondroblasts, adipocytes and fibroblasts. Therefore, BMSCs have the potential to improve the clinical outcomes for PFD. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ), a ligand activated transcription factor, has acquired a great deal of attention as it is involved in the fibrosis and cell differentiation. However, how it is regulated during the process of the differentiation of BMSCs into fibroblasts remains to be defined. The present study investigated the underlying mechanisms of PPAR-γ effect of mechanical stretch on the differentiation of BMSCs induced by pelvic ligament fibroblasts. PPAR-γ expression was decreased during the differentiation of BMSCs into fibroblasts by co-cultured stretched fibroblasts. Addition of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) reduced PPAR-γ expression and promoted the differentiation of BMSCs. With the employment of endogenous ligand, activation of PPAR-γ suppressed the BMSC differentiation. Similar effects were also observed with overexpression of PPAR-γ gene. In addition, decrease of PPAR-γ by the use of shRNA targeting rat PPAR-γ significantly contributed to BMSC differentiation to fibroblasts. These results indicate that PPAR-γ negatively regulates the differentiation of BMSCs into fibroblasts.
