SHED-CM: The Safety and Efficacy of Conditioned Media from Human Exfoliated Deciduous Teeth Stem Cells in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Treatment: A Retrospective Cohort Analysis.
Article in Biomedicines, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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/
objectivesAmyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive and irreversible neurodegenerative disease with limited treatment options. Advances in regenerative medicine have opened up new treatment options. The primary and exploratory objectives of this retrospective cohort study were to evaluate the safety and efficacy of stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth-conditioned media (SHED-CM).
methodsSafety assessments included adverse events, vital signs, and laboratory test changes before and after administration, and efficacy was measured using the ALS Functional Rating Scale-Revised (ALSFRS-R), grip strength, and forced vital capacity in 24 patients with ALS treated at a single facility between 1 January 2022, and 30 November 2023.
resultsWhile ALSFRS-R scores typically decline over time, the progression rate in this cohort was slower, suggesting a potential delay in disease progression. Alternatively, improvements in muscle strength and mobility were observed in some patients. Although adverse events were reported in only 3% of cases (no serious allergic reactions), the treatment-induced changes in vital signs and laboratory results were not clinically significant.
conclusionsThe SHED-CM treatment is a safe and potentially effective therapeutic option for patients with ALS. Further research is needed to optimize the SHED-CM treatment; however, this study lays the groundwork for future exploration of regenerative therapies for ALS.
