Therapeutic Application of Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Cochlear Regeneration.
Review in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Hearing loss is one of the major worldwide health problems that seriously affects human social and cognitive development. In the auditory system, three components outer ear, middle ear and inner ear are essential for the hearing mechanism. In the inner ear, sensory hair cells and ganglion neuronal cells are the essential supporters for hearing mechanism. Damage to these cells can be caused by long-term exposure of excessive noise, ototoxic drugs (aminoglycosides), ear tumors, infections, heredity and aging. Since mammalian cochlear hair cells do not regenerate naturally, some therapeutic interventions may be required to replace the damaged or lost cells. Cochlear implants and hearing aids are the temporary solutions for people suffering from severe hearing loss. The current discoveries in gene therapy may provide a deeper understanding in essential genes for the inner ear regeneration. Stem cell migration, survival and differentiation to supporting cells, cochlear hair cells and spiral ganglion neurons are the important foundation in understanding stem cell therapy. Moreover, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from different sources (bone marrow, umbilical cord, adipose tissue and placenta) could be used in inner ear therapy. Transplanted MSCs in the inner ear can recruit homing factors at the damaged sites to induce transdifferentiation into inner hair cells and ganglion neurons or regeneration of sensory hair cells, thus enhancing the cochlear function. This review summarizes the potential application of mesenchymal stem cells in hearing restoration and combining stem cell and molecular therapeutic strategies can also be used in the recovery of cochlear function.
