Factors Influencing Clinical and MRI Outcomes of Mesenchymal Stem Cell Implantation With Concomitant High Tibial Osteotomy for Varus Knee Osteoarthritis.

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
backgroundCartilage repair procedures using mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can provide superior cartilage regeneration in the medial compartment of the knee joint when high tibial osteotomy (HTO) is performed for varus knee osteoarthritis (OA). However, few studies have reported the factors influencing the outcomes of MSC implantation with concomitant HTO. PURPOSE: To investigate the outcomes of MSC implantation with concomitant HTO and to identify the prognostic factors that are associated with the outcomes. STUDY
designCase series; Level of evidence, 4.
methodsA total of 71 patients (75 knees) were retrospectively evaluated after MSC implantation with concomitant HTO. Clinical and radiological outcomes were evaluated, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used to assess cartilage regeneration. Statistical analyses were performed to determine the effect of different factors on clinical, radiographic, and MRI outcomes.
resultsClinical and radiographic outcomes improved significantly from preoperatively to final follow-up (
conclusionMSC implantation with concomitant HTO provided feasible cartilage regeneration and satisfactory clinical outcomes for patients with varus knee OA. Patient age and number of MSCs were important factors that influenced the clinical and MRI outcomes of MSC implantation with concomitant HTO for varus knee OA.
