Review of operative considerations in spinal cord stem cell therapy.
Review in World journal of stem cells, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Spinal cord injury (SCI) can permanently impair motor and sensory function and has a devastating cost to patients and the United States healthcare system. Stem cell transplantation for treatment of SCI is a new technique aimed at creating biological functional recovery. Operative techniques in stem cell transplantation for SCI are varied. We review various clinical treatment paradigms, surgical techniques and technical considerations important in SCI treatment. The NCBI PubMed database was queried for "SCI" and "stem cell" with a filter placed for "clinical trials". Thirty-nine articles resulted from the search and 29 were included and evaluated by study authors. A total of 10 articles were excluded (9 not SCI focused or transplantation focused, 1 canine model). Key considerations for stem cell transplantation include method of delivery (intravenous, intrathecal, intramedullary, or excision and engraftment), time course of treatment, number of treatments and time from injury until treatment. There are no phase III clinical trials yet, but decreased time from injury to treatment and a greater number of stem cell injections both seem to increase the chance of functional recovery.
