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: Dental Pulp Stem Cells (DPSCs) possess a remarkable ability for tissue differentiation, making them highly efficient in tissue regeneration and inflammation regulation. This systematic study proposes to find an answer to the question, "Do DPSCs have the ability to regenerate and rehabilitate nerve tissue?" Methods: This systematic review was conducted based on Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) criteria, and the principle of non-bias was respected. All the articles from 2014 to 2024 were extracted from the Web of Science, PubMed, and Scopus databases. This study extracted the antigens and pro-inflammatory factors associated with DPSCs' involvement and how they affect the CNS's neural tissue regeneration. Results: Two persons of researchers searched the database. After screening the full texts, they included 11 articles in their study. DPSCs control the following antigens: CD73, CD34, CD90, CD105, CD14, CD45, CD19Oct-4, CD73, CD31, CD34CD29CD44. Even though hematopoietic markers did not change much, OCT-4 and CD-73 were increased by DPSCs. DPSC-derived exosomes suppressed the expression of IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, and TGF, key mediators of nerve tissue inflammation. Additionally, DPSCs show high Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) expression in mice brain tissue cultures. DPSCs reduce Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (SAH), a condition in which blood collects in the subarachnoid space and causes ischemia. Discussion: DPSCs showed the ability to regenerate nerve tissue and brain ganglia, stimulating angiogenesis by expressing cell markers and controlling growth factors in mice, and high therapeutic potential in neurodegenerative disorders. The present study invites further research in neurological disorders, specifically strokes, to prescribe these stem cells to the human population.
