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

Background: Articular cartilage-derived progenitor cells (ACPCs) possess the properties of both chondrocytes and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). However, the number of ACPCs in articular cartilage is low, and an effective culture system is needed for their expansion. Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) promotes the expansion of chondrocytes and BMSCs, as well as the chondrogenic differentiation of BMSCs. Therefore, the aim of this study was to clarify whether bFGF could be used for Methods: We applied the fibronectin adhesion method to sort mice ACPCs and compared the proliferative, osteogenic, and chondrogenic abilities of ACPCs by adding various concentration of bFGF (0, 2, and 5 ng/mL) to the cell culture medium. Then used the best system to construct cartilage with ACPCs Results: The results indicated that bFGF promoted ACPCs proliferation, inhibited osteogenesis, and promoted chondrogenesis, and that a cell culture system containing 2 ng/mL bFGF was optimal for these effects. ACPCs constructed cartilage using the filtered culture system presented homogeneous cartilaginous histological structure Conclusions: By applying this cell culture system, homogenous cartilage tissue was constructed
