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

BACKGROUND Stem and progenitor cells are of great interest in all medical procedures involving tissue regeneration. There is a consensus that the use of stem cells after solid organ transplantation may play a role in tissue repair and in immunosuppression. The aim of this study was to determine possible relations between stem cell count and the immune response in a group of patients after kidney transplantation. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study was conducted on a group of 100 patients who underwent kidney transplantation. The following phenotypic markers of the studied cell subpopulations were adopted: Treg cells (CD3+CD4+CD25high), circulating hematopoietic cells (CD34+CD133+CD45+CD38-), and non-hematopoietic cells (Lin-CXCR4+CD133-CD45-). Cell subpopulations were assessed using LSRII flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA). RESULTS Positive correlation was observed between non-hematopoietic stem cells percentage and recipient's platelets count (P=0.04). Moreover, a higher percentage of non-hematopoietic cells was accompanied by lower numbers of B lymphocytes (P=0.03) and Treg cells (P=0.02). CONCLUSIONS Our study revealed significant associations between the intensity of ongoing immune response processes and tissue damage, and the release of stem and progenitor cells into circulation. These findings suggest their role in the stimulation of protective processes in terms of graft regeneration.
