Frequent injections of high-dose human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells slightly aggravate arthritis and skeletal muscle cachexia in collagen-induced arthritic mice.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
A single injection of low-dose human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) has been previously demonstrated to relieve synovitis and bone erosion in animal models of arthritis, but whether frequent injections of high-dose UC-MSCs relieve arthritis and inhibit loss of muscle mass has remained elusive. In the present study, DBA/1 mice were randomly divided into three groups: Normal (wild-type mice; n=11), collagen-induced arthritis (CIA; n=12) and CIA treated with UC-MSCs (n=11; 5x10
