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
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a whole joint disorder that is characterized by cartilage damage and abnormal remodeling of subchondral bone. Injecting adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) into the knee joint cavity can assist in repairing osteoarthritic joints, but their ability to migrate to the damaged site is limited. Our previous studies have shown that knee loading can improve the symptoms of OA, but the effect and mechanism of knee loading on the migration of ASCs in OA remain unclear. We employed a mouse model of OA in the knee and applied knee loading (1 N at 5 Hz for 6 min/day for 2 weeks) after the intra-articular injection of ASCs. The cartilage and subchondral bone repair were assessed by histopathological analysis. Immunofluorescence assays were also used to analyze the migration of ASCs. Using cell cultures, we evaluated the migration of ASCs using the transwell migration and wound healing assays. In vivo experiments showed that knee loading promoted the migration of ASCs, increased the local SDF-1 level, and accelerated the repair of the OA-damaged sites. Mechanistically, the observed effects were blocked by the SDF-1/CXCR4 inhibitor. The in vitro results further revealed that knee loading promoted the migration of ASCs and the inhibition of SDF-1/CXCR4 significantly suppressed the beneficial loading effect. The results herein suggested that the migration of ASCs was enhanced by knee loading through the SDF-1/CXCR4 regulatory axis, and mechanical loading promoted the joint-protective effect of ASCs.
