The Application of Photobiomodulation on Mesenchymal Stem Cells and its Potential Use for Tenocyte Differentiation.
Review in Current stem cell research & therapy, 2025. 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
Tendinopathy is a prevalent and debilitating musculoskeletal disorder. Uncertainty remains regarding its pathophysiology, but it is believed to be a combination of inflammation, damage, degenerative changes, and unsuccessful repair mechanisms. Cell-based therapy is an emerging regenerative medicine modality that uses mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), their progeny or exosomes to promote tendon healing and regeneration. It is based on the fact that MSCs can be differentiated into tenocytes, the major cell type within tendons, and facilitate tendon repair. Photobiomodulation (PBM) is a non-invasive and potentially promising therapeutic technique that utilizes low-level light to alter intracellular processes and promote tissue healing and regeneration. Recent studies have examined the potential for PBM to improve MSC therapy use in tendinopathy by promoting viability, proliferation, and differentiation. As well as enhance tendon regeneration. This review focuses on Photobiomodulation and MSC therapy applications in regenerative medicine and their potential for tendon tissue engineering.
