Potential of Autologous Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Peritoneal Fibrosis: A Pilot Study.
Article in Archives of Iranian medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundWe aimed to determine the effects of systemic therapy with autologous adipose tissue derived mesenchymal stem cells (AD-MSCs) on different parameters of peritoneal function and inflammation in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients.
methodsWe enrolled nine PD patients with ultrafiltration failure (UFF). Patients received 1.2±0.1×10
resultsSlight improvement was observed in the following UF capacity indices: free water transport (FWT, 32%), ultrafiltration - small pore (UFSP, 18%), ultrafiltration total (UFT, 25%), osmotic conductance to glucose (OCG, 25%), D/P creatinine (0.75 to 0.70), and Dt/D0 glucose (0.23 to 0.26). There was a slight increase in systemic and peritoneal levels of CA125 and a slight decrease in gene expression levels of TGF-β, α-SMA and FSP-1 that was more prominent at week 12 and vanished by the end of the study.
conclusionOur results for the first time showed the potential of MSCs for treatment of peritoneal damage in a clinical trial. Our results could be regarded as hypothesis suggestion and will need confirmation in future studies.
