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

backgroundStem cell-conditioned medium (CM) has been increasingly used in regenerative medicine. However, its effect on graft-host integration after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR) remains unclear. PURPOSE: To examine the effect of human bone marrow stem cell (hBMSC)-CM on graft-bone integration and graft midsubstance ligamentization in a rat model of ACLR. STUDY

designControlled laboratory study.

methodsCM was obtained from the supernatant of commercially available hBMSCs in serum-free Dulbecco's modified Eagle medium (DMEM). In a rat model of an ACL injury, isometric ACLR was performed. Three groups were established: CM injection group (CM; n = 40), control injection group (CI; n = 40) with serum-free DMEM injections, and no injection group (NI; n = 40). An intra-articular injection was performed weekly. Micro-computed tomography was conducted at 2, 4, and 8 weeks postoperatively. Histological and biomechanical analyses were conducted at 4 and 8 weeks postoperatively. The NIH3T3 fibroblast was utilized as a model in vitro to examine the effect of CM using the cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and immunofluorescence staining of Ki-67, α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), and collagen 1 (Col 1).

resultsAt 4 and 8 weeks, the femoral and tibial bone tunnel areas as well as the interface between the graft and host bone were smaller, while the bone volume/total volume ratio was higher, in the CM group. Sharpey-like fibers formed at 8 weeks in the CM group. At 4 and 8 weeks, more Col 1 was noticed in the CM group than in the NI group (both

conclusionhBMSC-CM accelerates graft-bone incorporation and midsubstance ligamentization and enhances the proliferation, differentiation, and collagen synthesis of fibroblasts. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Graft-host integration is essential after ACLR. The current study identified a novel agent, that is, hBMSC-CM, as a candidate for promoting integration.
