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

Migration and homing are known as critical steps toward regeneration of damaged tissues via cell therapies. Among various cellular sources of stem cells, the umbilical cord has been thus recognized as an interesting one endowed with high benefits. Accordingly, the main objective of the present study was to determine whether monophosphoryl lipid A (MPLA) or supernatant of Lactobacillus acidophilus (SLA) could increase migration of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUMSCs) toward acellular foreskin or not. In this study, the hUMSCs were isolated and cultured through acellular MPLA- or SLA-treated foreskin. Expression of some migration genes (i.e., VCAM-1, MMP-2, VLA-4, CXCR-4, and VEGF) was also investigated using quantitative real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Moreover; vimentin, cytokeratin 5 (CK5), and matrix metalloproteinases-2 (MMP-2) were detected via immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis. The hUMSCs in the presence of MPLA- or SLA-treated foreskin showed more tissue tropism compared with those in the control group. Besides, the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results established that the hUMSCs had more migratory activity in the presence of MPLA- or SLA-treated foreskin than the untreated one. The IHC analysis results correspondingly indicated that expression of vimentin, CK5, and MMP-2 proteins had augmented in both treatments compared with those in the control group. It was concluded that MPLA had revealed more prominent results than SLA, even though both treatments could be regarded as inducing factors in migration. Ultimately, it was suggested to introduce the use of MPLA and probiotic components as a promising approach to improve therapies in regenerative medicine.
