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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesAccelerating the process of bone regeneration is of great interest for surgeons and basic scientists alike. Recently, umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UCMSCs) are considered clinically applicable for tissue regeneration due to their noninvasive harvesting and better viability. Nonetheless, the bone regenerative ability of human UCMSCs (HUCMSCs) is largely unknown. This study aimed to investigate whether Wnt10b-overexpressing HUCMSCs have enhanced bone regeneration ability in a rat model.

methodA rat calvarial defect was performed on 8-week old male Sprague Dawley rats. Commercially purchased HUCMSCs

resultsAlizarin red staining, oil red staining and RT-PCR results showed robust osteogenic differentiation but poor adipogenic differentiation ability of HUCMSCs

conclusionTo our knowledge, this is the first study providing empirical evidence that HUCMSCs THE TRANSLATIONAL POTENTIAL OF THIS ARTICLE: HUCMSCs
