Phenotypic and functional comparison of rat enteric neural crest-derived cells during fetal and early-postnatal stages.
Article in Neural regeneration research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
In our previous study, we showed that with increasing time in culture, the growth characteristics of enteric neural crest-derived cells (ENCCs) change, and that the proliferation, migration and neural differentiation potential of these cells in vitro notably diminish. However, there are no studies on the developmental differences in these characteristics between fetal and early-postnatal stages in vitro or in vivo. In this study, we isolated fetal (embryonic day 14.5) and postnatal (postnatal day 2) ENCCs from the intestines of rats. Fetal ENCCs had greater maximum cross-sectional area of the neurospheres, stronger migration ability, and reduced apoptosis, compared with postnatal ENCCs. However, fetal and postnatal ENCCs had a similar differentiation ability. Fetal and postnatal ENCCs both survived after transplant into a rat model of Hirschsprung's disease. In these rats with Hirschsprung's disease, the number of ganglionic cells in the myenteric plexus was higher and the distal intestinal pressure change was greater in animals treated with fetal ENCCs compared with those treated with postnatal ENCCs. These findings suggest that, compared with postnatal ENCCs, fetal ENCCs exhibit higher survival and proliferation and migration abilities, and are therefore a more appropriate seed cell for the treatment of Hirschsprung's disease. This study was approved by the Animal Ethics Committee of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University (approval No. 2016086) on March 3, 2016.
