Safety and Efficacy of Cell Transplantation on Improving Motor Symptoms in Patients With Parkinson's Disease: A Meta-Analysis.
Synthesis in Frontiers in human neuroscience, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: The past four decades have seen the growing use of tissue or cell transplants in Parkinson's disease (PD) treatment. Parkinson's cell therapy is a promising new treatment; however, efficacy of cell transplantation for Parkinson's disease are entirely unclear. Objective: To conduct a meta-analysis and a systematic review of the efficacy of cell therapy in patients with PD. Methods: A systematic literature review and meta-analysis of 10 studies were performed to assess the efficacy of cell therapy in Parkinson's patients. To achieve this, we compared the change in Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) II and III scale scores to baseline and assessed the incidence of transplant-related adverse events. The MINORS score and the I Results: The literature search yielded 10 articles ( Conclusion: The present findings demonstrate important clues on the therapeutic effect of cell therapy in alleviating motor impairment and daily living ability in PD patients.
