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

backgroundFunctional and developmental versatility of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have generated great interest in their clinical application. Recently, it has been proposed that the non-adherent population of bone marrow cells can differentiate to MSCs

methodsThe present experimental study was conducted at the School of Veterinary Medicine, Urmia University (Urmia, Iran) during March-May 2018. UC was induced using acetic acid in three groups of male Wistar rats, namely the control colitis, adherent MSCs treated, and non-adherent MSCs treated groups. Adherent and non-adherent MSCs were collected, characterized, and proliferated. The isolated cells were injected into the peritoneum of the respective groups of colitis rats. After 10 days, the animals were evaluated for gross and microscopic pathology, production of inflammatory mediators, and stress oxidative profile in the gut tissue. The statistical analysis was performed using SPSS software (version 23.0). P<0.05 was considered statistically significant.

resultsThe non-adherent MSCs had almost similar therapeutic potency compared to the adherent MSCs (P=0.12). They significantly reduced the level of inflammatory mediators and improved the oxidative stress profile in colonic tissue compared to the control colitis group (P=0.0001).

conclusionThe molecular assays and histopathological assessment revealed that the non-adherent MSCs not only had anti-inflammatory and regulatory potency but also enhanced tissue regeneration in UC rats. Therefore, the non-adherent fraction of bone marrow-derived MSCs could be used as a complementary source of MSCs in stem cell therapies.
