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

Objective: To study the function of Huazhuo Jiedu Decoction (HZJD) in promoting the homing of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and contributing to the reconstruction of the intestinal mucosal barrier in ulcerative colitis. Methods: Bone mesenchymal stem cells derived from mice were isolated and cultured, osteogenic and adipogenic assays to study the differentiation ability of BMSCs, and flow cytometry was used to detect the surface marker of the third generation cells. 30 mice were selected and divided into blank group, model group, HZJD group, BMSCs group, and HZJD combined with BMSCs group. Mouse colon length, body weight, and DAI score were used to assess efficacy. The levels of IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, and IFN-γ in serum were measured by ELISA. BMSCs transfected with GFP were used to mark the homing of BMSCs in mice. The BMSCs tagging protein CD90+/CD29+ was detected by immunofluorescence. H&E staining detects damage to the colon and the inflammatory response. The expression levels of claudin-2, claudin-4, occludin, and ZO-1 in colon tissues were detected by Western blot. Results: After subculture, the cell grew with adherence. Flow cytometry showed that the cells were CD73+/CD90+/CD29+/CD45-/CD34-, which belonged to bone mesenchymal stem cells. ELISA showed that the treatment with HZJD and BMSCs suppressed the DSS-induced inflammatory response. BMSCs carrying GFP can be detected in intestinal tissues. Immunofluorescence showed that the HZJD combined with the BMSCs group had more BMSCs homing to the colonic tissue. The results of H&E and Western blot showed that DSS-induced intestinal mucosal damage in UC mice was repaired by HZJD and BMSCs, and the abnormal tight junction proteins claudin-2, claudin-4, occludin, and ZO-1 were normalized. Conclusion: HZJD has a therapeutic effect on ulcerative colitis by promoting the migration of BMSCs to ulcers of the colon and contributing to the reconstruction of the intestinal mucosal barrier in ulcerative colitis.
