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.

Abstract

Cell-based therapies hold great promise for the treatment of peripheral arterial disease (PAD), especially in patients presenting with severe limb ischemia, although the optimal strategy remains to be explored. In this study, we evaluated the therapeutic effect of intravenous administration of human Muse cells, a unique subpopulation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), using a mouse model of hindlimb ischemia (HLI) without an immunosuppressant. Compared with the phosphate buffered saline (PBS) or non-Muse MSC groups, the Muse group showed significantly higher laser doppler blood flow in the ischemic limb at days 7 and 14 after HLI. Increased microvascular density [percent area of CD31(+) cells] and reduced interstitial fibrosis in the ischemic limb muscle were also observed in the Muse group. mCherry-expressing Muse cells were found in the ischemic border zone and expressed CD31 but did not in the non-ischemic limb. Muse cells produced higher amounts of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) than non-Muse cells under normoxic and hypoxic conditions
