Transient Existence of Circulating Mesenchymal Stem Cells in the Deep Veins in Humans Following Long Bone Intramedullary Reaming.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The biology of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in humans is incompletely understood and a possible role of systemically circulating cells in health and autoimmune disease remains controversial. Physiological movement of bone marrow MSCs to sites of injury would support the rationale for intravenous administration for relocation to damaged organs. We hypothesized that biophysical skeletal trauma rather than molecular cues may explain reported MSC circulation phenomena. Deep-femoral vein (FV) and matched peripheral vein blood samples (PVBs) were collected from patients undergoing lower-limb orthopaedic procedures during surgery (tibia using conventional sequential reaming, n = 9, femur using reamer/irrigator/aspirator (RIA), n = 15). PVBs were also taken from early (n = 15) and established (n = 12) rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients and healthy donors (n = 12). Colony-forming unit-fibroblasts (CFU-Fs) were found in 17/36 FVBs but only 7/74 PVBs (mostly from femoral RIA); highly proliferative clonogenic cells were not generated. Only one colony was found in control/RA samples (
