Current status of stem cell treatments and innovative approaches for stress urinary incontinence.
Review in Frontiers in medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Stem cells are capable of self-renewal, differentiation, and the promotion of the release of chemokines and progenitor cells essential for tissue regeneration. Stem cells have the potential to develop into specialized cells if given the right conditions, to self-renew and maintain themselves, to generate a large number of new differentiated cells if injured, and to either generate new tissues or repair existing ones. In the last decade, it has become clear that treating lower urinary tract dysfunction with the patient's own adult stem cells is an effective, root-cause method. Regenerative medicine is predicated on the idea that a damaged rhabdosphincter can be repaired, leading to enhanced blood flow and improved function of the sphincter's exterior (striated) and internal (smooth) muscles. Stem cell therapy has the potential to cure stress urinary incontinence according to preclinical models. In contrast, stem cell treatment has not been licensed for routine clinical usage. This article reviews the current state of stem cell for stres urinary incontinence research and recommends future avenues to facilitate practical uses of this potential therapy modality.
