Functional Assessment of Pluripotent and Mesenchymal Stem Cell Derived Secretome in Heart Disease.
Article in Annals of stem cell research, 2019. 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
objectivesCell-based therapies have demonstrated variable degrees of success in the management of myocardial infarction and heart failure. By inducing a myocardial infarction in a rat model, the effects of secretome from human induced pluripotent stem cells (HiPSCs) and human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) on cardiac function and remodeling were investigated.
methodsHiPSCs and hMSCs were cultured and after 12 cycles, secretome was collected. The quantification of stem cell growth factors was measured using the ELISA test. Thirty female Lewis rats underwent surgical ligation of the left coronary artery. The rats were then randomized (n=10/group) to receive one of three treatments injected into the peri-infarct area; normal saline, HiPSC and hMSC. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), fractional shortening (FS), histology and serum proteomics were evaluated in a blinded fashion both pre-operatively and at 2, 4 and 6 weeks.
resultsELISA studies revealed, Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) concentration of 3.35± 0.031 ng/ml (0.68± 0.027ng/ml) for MSC-CM group, 3.44± 0.042 ng/ml (0.78± 0.03 ng/ml) for the HiPSC-CM group, 3.2± 0.107 ng/ml (0.64±0.013 ng/ml) for the MSC-pre-group, 3.1± 0.075 ng/ml (0.71± 0.013 ng/ml) for the HiPSC-pre group and 3.3± 0.047 ng/ml (0.71± 0.014ng/ml) for the HiPSC-pre-r group at 60 min in comparison to at (0 min).Compared to non-treated (NT), HiPSC and hMSC, treated rats demonstrated significant improvement in LVEF and FS, and significant reduction in scar size (p<0.05) at 4 and 6 weeks. Proteomic analysis detected the presence of Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the serum of rats receiving HiPSC, which was absent in the NT and hMSC groups.
conclusionThe current study demonstrated a significant improvement of cardiac function and remodeling in response to secretome from HiPSCs and hMSCs. These findings suggest that secretome from HiPSCs may have potential therapy for acute myocardial infarction (MI) without the need of stem cell harvesting and implantation.
