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

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways that involves multiple cells, including inflammatory cells, structural cells, and cellular components. Glucocorticoids and beta-receptor agonists are still the first choices for asthma treatment. However, the asthma symptoms may still be poorly controlled in some patients after an optimal treatment. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are characterized by the potential for multi-directional differentiation and can exert immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory effects. Its role in treating asthma has increasingly been recognized in recent years. In this review article, we sought to summarize the recent advances in the therapeutic effects of MSCs on several types of asthma and explain the relevant mechanisms. Articles on asthma treatment with MSCs as of January 2020 were searched in PubMed, Google Scholar, and Web of Science databases. It was found that MSCs have therapeutic effects on allergic asthma, non-allergic asthma and occupational asthma; gene-modified or pretreated MSCs improves the therapeutic effects of MSCs in asthma; MSC-derived conditioned medium or extracellular vesicles possess the considerable curative effect as MSC on asthma; and MSCs exert their therapeutic effects on asthma by restoring Th1/Th2 balance, reversing Th17/Tregs imbalance, inhibiting DC maturation, and promoting the switch of M1 to M2 and repairing epithelial injury. Thus, MSCs may be a promising treatment for asthma.
