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

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are known for their self-renewal and multi-lineage differentiation potential, with these cells often being evaluated in the regulation and maintenance of specific cellular niches including those of the hair follicle. Most mesenchymal stem cells in the hair follicles are housed in the dermal papilla (DP) and dermal sheath (DS), with both niches characterized by a broad variety of cellular subsets. However, while most previous studies describing the hair follicle mesenchymal niche treated all DP and DS cells as Hair Follicle Mesenchymal Stem Cells (HF-MSCs), the high number of cellular subsets would suggest that these cells are actually too heterogenous for such a broad definition. Given this we designed this study to evaluate the differentiation processes in these cells and used this data to create a new set of classifications for DP and DS cells, dividing them into "hair follicle mesenchymal stem cells (HF-MSCs)", "hair follicle mesenchymal progenitor cells (HF-MPCs)", and "hair follicle mesenchymal functional cells (HF-MFCs)". In addition, those cells that possess self-renewal and differentiation were re-named hair follicle derived mesenchymal multipotent cells (HF-MMCs). This new classification may help to further our understanding of the heterogeneity of hair follicle dermal cells and provide new insights into their evaluation.
