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

backgroundMesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent stromal cells and could exert hepatoprotective effects against acute liver injury, steatohepatitis, and fibrogenesis. Here, we evaluated the effects of human adipose derived stem cells (hADSCs) to attenuate experimentally induced hepatic fibrosis and early cirrhosis in rats.

methodsHepatic fibrosis was induced by intraperitoneal injections of CCl

resultsSerial administrations of CCl

conclusionsTreatment with hADSCs improved liver functions, markedly reduced hepatic fibrosis and early cirrhosis. Various pleiotropic and paracrine factors secreted from the hADSCs seem to serve as reparative functions in the attenuation of liver cirrhosis. The data demonstrated that treatment with hADSCs can be successfully used as a potent therapeutic method to prevent progression of hepatic fibrosis and related adverse events.
