The body's integrated repair kit: Studying mesenchymal stem cells for better ligament repair.
Article in Biomedical journal, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
In this issue of the Biomedical Journal, we learn that the sport injury-prone knee ligaments might harbour their own repair kit in the form of mesenchymal stem cells, and that TERT transformation helps to keep these cells longer in culture for more extensive studies. In addition, we get a demonstration that diffusion tensor imaging can reliably show the activity of specific neural circuits, that rheumatoid arthritis patients are more prone to insulin resistance, and that platelet-enriched plasma gels significantly improve wound healing after pilonidal sinus surgery. Furthermore, two procreation-related articles inform us that growth hormone treatment improves endometrial receptivity in older women, and that elevated maternal liver enzymes do not impact on the outcome of laser therapy for twin-twin transfusion syndrome. Finally, our attention is brought to the importance of subjective well-being evaluation for orthodontic correction needs, as well as the possibility that exercise could maybe increase sperm telomere length.
