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
backgroundAdipose tissue is known to serve as an abundant and readily accessible source of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) as an alternative to bone marrow. Collagenase is one of the most widely used methods for the isolation of ADSCs from adipose tissue, but it takes a long time, and there are also debates about safety. We propose an ultrasonic cavitation-treated method that can significantly reduce time and avoid the problem of using xenogeneic enzymes in ADSCs isolation.
methodsADSCs were isolated from adipose tissue using the enzyme treatment method and the ultrasonic cavitation treatment method. Cell proliferation was measured using cell viability assay. The expression levels of the surface markers of ADSCs were estimated by real-time PCR. After, ADSCs were cultured in chondrogenic, osteogenic, or adipogenic differentiation medium; the differentiation potential of ADCSs was analyzed by Alcian blue, Alizarin Red S, Oil Red O, and real-time PCR.
resultsThe cells treated with collagenase and ultrasound had similar cell yields and proliferation after isolation. The difference in the expression of surface markers of ADSCs was not statistically significant. ADSCs showed differentiation potential into adipocytes, osteocytes, and chondrocytes, and there was no difference between the enzyme treatment method and the ultrasonic cavitation treatment method. The yield of the ADSC increased in time- and intensity dependently.
conclusionsUltrasound certainly serves as a promising method in advancing ADSC isolation technology.
