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

The animal models of traumatic pancreatitis (TP) were established to evaluate the specific mechanisms by which umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (ucMSC-Ex) exert therapeutic effects. Sixty four rats were randomly divided into eight groups, including TP groups with three different degrees and relevant groups with ucMSC-Ex treated. The degrees of pancreatic tissue injury were evaluated by Histological Examination. Furthermore, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were applied to evaluate the activity of pancreatic enzymes and levels of inflammatory factors in serum. Finally, the apoptotic effects of each group were evaluated by TUNEL, western blot (WB), and real time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). The pancreatic histopathological score and serum amylase and lipase levels gradually increased in various degrees of TP and the levels in the treatment group were all significantly decreased. The apoptosis index gradually increased in each TP group and significantly decreased in the treatment group in TUNEL results. WB and RT-qPCR showed the same trend, that bax and caspase-3 gradually increased and bcl-2 gradually decreased in TP groups. Compared with TP groups, the expression of bax and caspase-3 were lower while bcl-2 expression was higher in the treatment group. ucMSC-Ex suppressed the inflammatory response and inhibited pancreatic acinar cell apoptosis to promote repair of injured pancreatic tissue.
