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 &

aimsOur previous study showed that transplantation of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) promoted functional enteric nerve regeneration in denervated mice but not through direct transdifferentiation. Homeostasis of the adult enteric nervous system (ENS) is maintained by enteric neural precursor cells (ENPCs). Whether ENPCs are a source of regenerated nerves in denervated mice remains unknown.

methodsGenetically engineered mice were used as recipients, and ENPCs were traced during enteric nerve regeneration. The mice were treated with benzalkonium chloride to establish a denervation model and then transplanted with BMSCs 3 days later. After 28 days, the gastric motility and ENS regeneration were analyzed. The interaction between BMSCs and ENPCs in vitro was further assessed.

resultsTwenty-eight days after transplantation, gastric motility recovery (gastric emptying capacity, P < .01; gastric contractility, P < .01) and ENS regeneration (neurons, P < .01; glial cells, P < .001) were promoted in BMSCs transplantation groups compared with non-transplanted groups in denervated mice. More importantly, we found that ENPCs could differentiate into enteric neurons and glial cells in denervated mice after BMSCs transplantation, and the proportion of Nestin

conclusionsIn the case of enteric nerve injury, ENPCs can differentiate into enteric neurons and glial cells to promote ENS repair and gastric motility recovery after BMSCs transplantation. BMSCs expressing GDNF enhance the migration, proliferation, and differentiation of ENPCs.
