Possibility of inhibiting arthritis and joint destruction by SSEA-3 positive cells derived from synovial tissue in rheumatoid arthritis.
Article in Regenerative therapy, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
aimJoint destruction progresses irreversibly once they occur in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), even with the recent development of anti-rheumatic drugs. Cells positive for stage-specific embryonic antigen-3 (SSEA-3), a marker of human embryonic stem cell, act as stem cells in the blood. The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of SSEA-3 positive cells for the treatment for RA.
methodsSynovial tissues were harvested at the time of joint surgery in RA patients. Cultured synovial cells were sorted by anti-SSEA-3 antibody using flow cytometry and were analyzed in
resultsPresence of SSEA-3 positive cells was confirmed with approximately 1% in RA synovial cells. SSEA-3 positive cells were negative for CD34 and positive for CD44, CD90 and CD105. Multipotency of SSEA-3 positive cells was higher than that of SSEA-3 negative cells. Arthritis of the group transplanted with SSEA-3 positive cells in CAIA mice decreased over time.
conclusionsSSEA-3 positive cells derived from RA synovial tissue might have the inhibitory effect on arthritis and would be one of cell source for new RA treatment.
