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

A dose escalation study of adipose-derived human mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy was studied in 21 subjects. This dose escalation study confirmed no significant cellular toxicity, but it showed improvement in renal oxygenation and glomerular filtration rate. No significant renal toxicity from cell therapy was shown. A reduction in inflammatory markers including tumor necrosis factor-α, interferon-γ, and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin was noted in subjects receiving MSC therapy. This study provides short-term safety and renal efficacy for MSC therapy and paves the way forward for future MSC-based interventions in renovascular disease.
