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

Background: The stem cell niche in human bone marrow provides scaffolds, cellular frameworks and essential soluble cues to support the stemness of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). To decipher this complex structure and the corresponding cellular interactions, a number of in vitro model systems have been developed. The cellular microenvironment is of key importance, and mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) represent one of the major cellular determinants of the niche. Regulation of the self-renewal and differentiation of HSPCs requires not only direct cellular contact and adhesion molecules, but also various cytokines and chemokines. The C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4/stromal cell-derived factor 1 axis plays a pivotal role in stem cell mobilization and homing. As we have learned in recent years, to realistically simulate the physiological in vivo situation, advanced model systems should be based on niche cells arranged in a three-dimensional (3D) structure. By providing a dynamic rather than static setup, microbioreactor systems offer a number of advantages. In addition, the role of low oxygen tension in the niche microenvironment and its impact on hematopoietic stem cells need to be taken into account and are discussed in this review. Summary: This review focuses on the role of MSCs as a part of the bone marrow niche, the interplay between MSCs and HSPCs and the most important regulatory factors that need to be considered when engineering artificial hematopoietic stem cell niche systems. Conclusion: Advanced 3D model systems using MSCs as niche cells and applying microbioreactor-based technology are capable of simulating the natural properties of the bone marrow niche more closely than ever before.
