Adipose-derived stem cells postpone the progression of Sjögren's syndrome by upregulating the Hippo signaling pathway.

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
The aim of the present study was to explore the effect and mechanism of action of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) on Sjögren syndrome (SS) to develop novel and more effective methods for SS treatment. ADSCs, dexamethasone or normal saline was injected into the submandibular gland (SMG) of three 12-week-old non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice. The degree of lymphocyte infiltration was considered as a criterion for judging disease progression, hematoxylin and eosin staining was performed to observe the pathological state, and the expression levels of TAZ, E-cadherin and α-catenin were assessed by western blotting. ADSC transplantation triggered an inhibitory effect on the progression of SS, which was slightly stronger compared with that of dexamethasone treatment. This was found to be related to the Hippo signaling pathway. In addition, TAZ protein expression levels decreased gradually with the progression of the disease; immunofluorescence staining showed that the expression of E-cadherin and TAZ followed similar trends. Notably, the expression of TAZ, p-TAZ, E-cadherin and α-catenin in NOD mice were lower compared with that in Control mice. Similarly, the ratio of p-TAZ/TAZ also decreased, which means that the activation level of Hippo signal pathway decreased. The results suggest that ADSCs may exert a therapeutic effect against SS and may postpone its progression by upregulating the Hippo signaling pathway.
