Article in Cells, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) attract interest in regenerative medicine for their potential application in bone regeneration. However, direct transplantation of cells into damaged tissue is not efficient enough to regenerate large bone defects. This problem could be solved with a biocompatible scaffold. Consequently, bone tissue engineering constructs based on biomaterial scaffolds, MSCs, and osteogenic cytokines are promising tools for bone regeneration. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of FGF-2 and BMP-2 on the osteogenic potential of ovine bone marrow-derived MSCs seeded onto an nHAP-coated PCL/HAP/β-TCP scaffold in vitro and its in vivo biocompatibility in a sheep model. In vitro analysis revealed that cells preconditioned with FGF-2 and BMP-2 showed a better capacity to adhere and proliferate on the scaffold than untreated cells. BM-MSCs cultured in an osteogenic medium supplemented with FGF-2 and BMP-2 had the highest osteogenic differentiation potential, as assessed based on Alizarin Red S staining and ALP activity. qRT-PCR analysis showed increased expression of osteogenic marker genes in FGF-2- and BMP-2-treated BM-MSCs. Our pilot in vivo research showed that the implantation of an nHAP-coated PCL/HAP/β-TCP scaffold with BM-MSCs preconditioned with FGF-2 and BMP-2 did not have an adverse effect in the sheep mandibular region and induced bone regeneration. The biocompatibility of the implanted scaffold-BM-MSC construct with sheep tissues was confirmed by the expression of early (collagen type I) and late (osteocalcin) osteogenic proteins and a lack of an elevated level of proinflammatory cytokines. These findings suggest that FGF-2 and BMP-2 enhance the osteogenic differentiation potential of MSCs grown on a scaffold, and that such a tissue engineering construct may be used to regenerate large bone defects.
