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

Many studies have explored cardiac progenitor cell (CPC) therapy for heart disease. However, optimal scaffolds are needed to ensure the engraftment of transplanted cells. We produced a three-dimensional hydrogel scaffold (CPC-PRGmx) in which high-viability CPCs were cultured for up to 8 weeks. CPC-PRGmx contained an RGD peptide-conjugated self-assembling peptide with insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1). Immediately after creating myocardial infarction (MI), we transplanted CPC-PRGmx into the pericardial space on to the surface of the MI area. Four weeks after transplantation, red fluorescent protein-expressing CPCs and
