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

Glucose-induced oxidative stress in the diabetic pancreas directly affects viability and the consequent therapeutic outcome of transplanted stem cells. Pretreatment of stem cells with growth factors induces tolerance in them against various stresses (hypoxia, thermal or hyperglycaemic). This study investigated the effect of pretreatment on insulin-producing cells (IPCs) differentiated from adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs), with a combination of stromal cell-derived factor 1 alpha (SDF1 α) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) against hyperglycaemic stress (17 or 33 mM glucose). The results showed that IPCs pretreated with a combination of SDF1α and bFGF exhibited maximally alleviated apoptosis, senescence and cell damage with a concomitantly increased release of insulin, enhanced cell proliferation and greater upregulation of Insulin 1, Insulin 2, Ngn3, Pdx1 and Nkx6.2 when stressed with 33 mM glucose. These findings may offer an improved therapeutic outcome for the treatment of diabetes.
