Peripheral Injection of hUC-MSCs in the Treatment of Acute Liver Failure: A Pre-Clinical Cohort Study in Rhesus Monkeys.

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
Background: Using a toxin-induced lethal acute liver failure (ALF) monkey model, we have recently shown that early peripheral infusion of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) can alleviate liver damage and improve animal survival by suppressing the activation of circulating monocytes and the subsequent cytokine storm. Here, we explored whether the administration of hUC-MSCs could still improve ALF when the cytokine storm is fully developed. Method: We treated ALF monkeys with peripheral delivery of hUC-MSCs at 48 hr after toxin challenge. Liver indices, histology, imaging, and animal survival were recorded and analyzed. Results: In our cohort study, we conducted and demonstrated that the infusion of hUC-MSCs significantly improved liver histology, effectively controlled inflammatory cytokine storms, and increased survival rates. Additionally, the administration of a higher dose of hUC-MSCs (2 × 10 Conclusion: Treatment of hUC-MSCs can significantly improve the pathological and survival outcomes of ALF even when the cytokine storm has been fully developed, indicating a promising clinical solution for ALF.
