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

Endometrial regenerative cells (ERCs) are a new type of mesenchymal-like stromal cells, and their therapeutic potential has been tested in a variety of disease models. SDF-1/CXCR4 axis plays a chemotaxis role in stem/stromal cell migration. The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of SDF-1/CXCR4 axis in the immunomodulation of ERCs on the experimental colitis. The immunomodulation of ERCs in the presence or absence of pretreatment of SDF-1 or AMD3100 was examined in both in vitro cell culture system and dextran sulphate sodium-induced colitis in mice. The results showed that SDF-1 increased the expression of CXCR4 on the surface of ERCs. As compared with normal ERCs, the SDF-1-treated, CXCR4 high-expressing ERCs more significantly suppressed dendritic cell population as well as stimulated both type 2 macrophages and regulatory T cells in vitro and in vivo. Meanwhile, SDF-1-pretreated ERCs increased the generation of anti-inflammatory factors (e.g., IL-4, IL-10) and decreased the pro-inflammatory factors (e.g., IL-6, TNF-α). In addition, SDF-1-pretreated CM-Dil-labeled ERCs were found to engraft to injured colon. Our results may suggest that an SDF-1-induced high level of CXCR4 expression enhances the immunomodulation of ERCs in alleviating experimental colitis in mice.
