1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionMature adipocyte-derived dedifferentiated fat cells (DFATs) are mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-like cells with high proliferative ability and multilineage differentiation potential. In this study, we first examined whether DFATs can be prepared from infrapatellar fat pad (IFP) and then compared phenotypic and functional properties of IFP-derived DFATs (IFP-DFATs) with those of subcutaneous adipose tissue (SC)-derived DFATs (SC-DFATs).

methodsMature adipocytes isolated from IFP and SC in osteoarthritis patients (n = 7) were cultured by ceiling culture method to generate DFATs. Obtained IFP-DFATs and SC-DFATs were subjected to flow cytometric and microarray analysis to compare their immunophenotypes and gene expression profiles. Cell proliferation assay and adipogenic, osteogenic, and chondrogenic differentiation assays were performed to evaluate their functional properties.

resultsDFATs could be prepared from IFP and SC with similar efficiency. IFP-DFATs and SC-DFATs exhibited similar immunophenotypes (CD73

conclusionsIFP-DFATs showed higher cellular proliferative potential and higher chondrogenic differentiation capacity than SC-DFATs. IFP-DFAT cells may be an attractive cell source for chondrogenic regeneration.
