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

purposeMesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have appeared as a promising regenerative cell-based therapeutic, for degenerative conditions, such as OA, while the beneficial results from the application of MSCs have been attributed to the MSCs-derived secretome, which is the sum of cytoprotective factors produced by the MSCs. Aim of this study was to systematically review the literature in order to assess whether stem cell secretome (conditioned medium-CM, exosome-Exos or microvesicles-MV)(CM/Exos/MVs) treatment reduces inflammation and enhances cartilage regeneration in preclinical studies of experimental arthritis. MATERIALS AND

methodsAn extensive electronic search was conducted by 2 independent reviewers by using the PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Scopus database, as well as Google Scholar, in order to identify the studies that met our inclusion criteria until August 2019. Included studies were assessed for quality and Risk of Bias (RoB) using the ARRIVE (Animal Research: Reporting In Vivo Experiments) guidelines and a modification of Systematic Review Centre for Laboratory animal Experimentation (SYRCLE) RoB tool for animal studies, respectively.

resultsThe initial search provided 525 records, with 28 fulfilling the inclusion criteria. The included studies presented great heterogeneity regarding the stem cells used, the preparation of therapeutic agent as well as the animal models used for testing. In addition, most studies presented with an unclear or high risk bias.

conclusionIn summary, the positive results of CM/Exos/MVs application in preclinical models of experimentally induced OA in terms of resolution of inflammation and cartilage regeneration are highlighted in this review, presenting a promising therapeutic solution for OA.
