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

Background aims: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is one of the most complex and destructive diseases of the nervous system, which can lead to permanent loss of tactile perception. But existing treatment methods have limited effects. To establish a novel method that may be therapeutic in repairing the injured spinal cord, gene-modified dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) were injected in situ. Methods: Adenovirus carrying osteopontin (OPN), Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) and cailiary-derived neurotrophic factor (CNTF) (Ad-OIC) was constructed. After modified with Ad-OIC, supernatant of DPSC were co-cultured with HT-22 cells and the effect of DPSC-OIC on the HT-22 cells were evaluated via Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, Real-Time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis, laser confocal microscopy and fluorescence activating cell sorter (FACS). DPSC-OIC were injected in the lesion area of injured spinal cord and the survival time of transplanted cells were measured by bioluminescence imaging system. The recovery of the injured spinal cord was evaluated by behavioral score, radiological evaluation and immunopathological analysis. Results: DPSC-OIC could enhance the proliferation and axon growth of HT-22 cells, and protect HT-22 cells from H Conclusions: DPSC-OIC could be a novel effective method for treating SCI.
