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

We aimed to assess the immunoregulatory effects of secretory factors produced by adipose tissue-derived MSC (AT-MSC) on Th17 and Treg subsets from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). 17 patients with active disease matching the ACR/EULAR 2010 criteria for RA were included. Patients' peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were cultured in AT-MSC-conditioned medium (AT-MSCcm) and in control medium. The cytokine production of AT-MSC and PBMC was quantified by ELISA. Th17 and Treg were determined by flow cytometry. AT-MSCcm contained: IL-6, IL-17, IL-21, CCL2, CCL5, IL-8, sVEGF-A and PGE
