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
objectivesThe purpose of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of spiral ganglion neuron (SGN) regeneration after dental pulp stem cell (DPSC) transplantation in a rat sensorineural hearing loss (HL) model. MATERIALS AND
methodsSham or experimental HL was induced in adult Sprague-Dawley rats by cochlear round window surgery. An HL rat model was established with a single 10 mM ouabain intratympanic injection. After 7 days, the rats received DPSCs, stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED), or culture medium in the sutural area to establish four groups: sham, HL-DPSC, HL-SHED, and HL-medium. Histological analyses were performed at 4, 7, and 10 weeks after transplantation, and the number of SGNs, specific SGN protein expression, and the function of SGNs were evaluated. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: Data were statistically by MS Excel and SPSS v.15.0. Intergroup level of significance was determined via a one-way analysis of variance and Duncan's multiple range test with 95% confidence intervals.
resultsNew SGN formation was observed in the HL-DPSC and HL-SHED rat groups. The number of SGNs was significantly higher in the HL-DPSC and HL-SHED groups than in the HL-medium group over 4 to 10-week survival period. HL-DPSC rats exhibited higher SGN density compared with that in HL-SHED group, which was statistically significant at week 10. The regenerated SGNs expressed cochlear wiring regulator GATA-binding-protein 3. Moreover, the SGNs from the HL-DPSC group also exhibited a higher expression of synaptic vesicle protein and regulated action potential-dependent neurotransmitter release compared with SGNs from the HL-SHED group.
conclusionsOur findings suggest that DPSCs and SHED repair and regenerate SGNs in rat HL model. Dental pulp stem cells represent a promising treatment strategy for restoring damage to the sensory circuits associated with deafness.
