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

A rotator cuff tear is an age-related common cause of pain and disability. Studies including our previously published ones have demonstrated that mesenchymal stem cells cultured under hypoxic conditions [hypoxic multipotent stromal cells (MSCs)] facilitate the retention of transplanted cells and promote wound healing. However, there are very few, if any, reports targeting the punctured supraspinatus tendons to create more or equally serous wounds as age-related tears of rotator cuff. It remains to be determined whether transplantation of bone-marrow-derived hypoxic MSCs into the punctured supraspinatus tendon improves tendon repair and, when combined with ultrasound-guided delivery, could be used for future clinical applications. In this study, we used a total of 33 Sprague-Dawley rats in different groups for normal no-punched control, hypoxic MSC treatment, nontreated vehicle control, and MSC preparation, and then evaluated treatment outcomes by biomechanical testing and histological analysis. We found that the ultimate failure load of the hypoxic MSC-treated group was close to that of the normal tendon and significantly greater than that of the nontreated vehicle control group.
