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) therapy for sepsis has been extensively studied in the past decade; however, the treatment regimen and mechanism of action of MSCs remain elusive. Here, we attempted to understand the efficacy and mechanism of action of MSCs on rescuing mice with sepsis.

methodsA mouse model of sepsis was produced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). Allogeneic adipose-derived MSCs (ADSCs) were administered by intravenous infusion at 6 h after CLP, and dose-related effects of ADSCs on these mice were determined by survival rate, histopathological changes, biochemical and coagulation parameters, bacterial load, and plasma levels of endotoxin and inflammatory cytokines. The tissue distribution of intravenously infused ADSCs in septic mice was investigated by pre-labeling ADSCs with the lipophilic membrane dye PKH26. RNA sequencing analysis was performed to assess the transcriptional changes in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and the liver.

resultsA significant therapeutic effect of ADSCs at a dose of 2 × 10

conclusionsOur findings demonstrate a dose-specific effect of ADSCs on the treatment of sepsis due to dose-related interactions between exogenous stem cells and the host's microenvironment. Therefore, a precise dosing regimen is a prerequisite for ADSCs therapy for sepsis.
