Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells toxicity and allergy effects: In vivo assessment.
Article in PloS one, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveHuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs) hold significant promise across various clinical applications. Therefore, regulatory requirements necessitate a thorough investigation of the hUCMSCs safety before clinical trials and potential allergic reactions after transplantation.
methodsAbnormal toxicity test employed mice and guinea pigs dosed daily at 0.5×106 cells and 5×106 cells, respectively for 7 days. Acute toxicity test employed low, medium, and high doses of hUCMSCs injected into mice once, followed by observations for 23 days. In systemic allergy test, guinea pigs received low and high dose of hUCMSCs, with sensitization and excitation stages at day 14 and 21, respectively.
resultsThe abnormal toxicity test of hUCMSC injections revealed no abnormal reactions over a seven-day observation period, indicating the safety of this administration route. In acute toxicity studies, the high-dose hUCMSCs group resulted in fatalities due to pulmonary embolism. Conversely, the low-dose group exhibited no toxic reactions or deaths. The maximum tolerated dose was determined to be >2×107 cells/kg. Systemic active allergy test showed that high doses of hUCMSC intravenous injections did not induce allergic reactions.
conclusionThis research affirms hUCMSC injections meet safety standards for clinical cell therapy, emphasizing their safe and promising clinical utility.
