Preventive effects of transplantation of oral mucosal epithelial cells seeded on a decellularized amniotic membrane in a model of intrauterine adhesion.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental pathology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveTo observe the preventive effects of oral mucosal epithelial cells (OMECs) seeded on a decellularized human amniotic membrane (dHAM) in a rat model of intrauterine adhesion (IUA).
methodsIUAs were established by mechanical endometrial scraping in model rats. Thirty-six Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into: IUA, dHAM transplantation, and dHAM+OMECs transplantation groups (12 in each group). The oral mucosae of rats were collected, and the OMECs were cultured on the dHAM. The dHAM and dHAM+OMECs were transplanted into left scraped uteri (right uteri as controls) in the dHAM and dHAM+OMECs transplantation groups. At 3, 7, 14, and 28 days after transplantation, the uterine samples underwent histological and immunohistochemical staining.
resultsAfter endometrial scraping, the endometria and uterine cavities were obliterated. The ratios of the fibrotic areas to the whole endometrium in the IUA and dHAM transplantation group were higher than in the control group (P<0.01). In the dHAM+OMECs transplantation group, the fibrotic area significantly decreased compared to the IUA group after 7, 14, and 28 days, and the dHAM transplantation group at 14 and 28 days (P<0.01). At 14 and 28 days after surgery in the dHAM+OMECs transplantation group, the number of endometrial glands and the endometrial thickness increased (P<0.01), and regenerated epithelia were observed. Immunohistochemical assays for cytokeratin 18 demonstrated that the newly-regenerated epithelium was endometrium.
conclusionOMECs can enhance repair of damaged endometrium, and promise to be novel and effective in preventing IUAs. However, studies of OMECs in patients with IUA need further exploration.
