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

objectivePreterm infants are at a high risk of developing BPD. Although progression in neonatal care has improved, BPD still causes significant morbidity and mortality, which can be attributed to the limited therapeutic choices for BPD. This review discusses the potential of MSC in treating BPD as well as their hurdles and possible solutions. DATA SOURCES: The search for data was not limited to any sites but was mostly performed on all clinical trials available in ClinicalTrials.gov as well as on PubMed by applying the following keywords: lung injury, preterm, inflammation, neonatal, bronchopulmonary dysplasia and mesenchymal stem cells. STUDY SELECTIONS: The articles chosen for this review were collectively determined to be relevant and appropriate in discussing MSC not only as a potential treatment strategy for curbing the incidence of BPD but also including insights on problems regarding MSC treatment for BPD.

resultsClinical trials regarding the use of MSC for BPD had good results but also illustrated insights on problems to be addressed in the future regarding the treatment strategy. Despite that, the clinical trials had mostly favourable reviews.

conclusionWith BPD existing as a constant threat and there being no permanent solutions, the idea of regenerative medicine such as MSC may prove to be a breakthrough strategy when it comes to treating BPD. The success in clinical trials led to the formulation of prospective MSC-derived products such as PNEUMOSTEM®, and there is the possibility of a stem cell medication and permanent treatment for BPD in the near future.
