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: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are safe and effective in treating myocardial infarction (MI) and have broad application prospects. However, the heterogeneity of MSCs may affect their therapeutic effect on the disease. We recently found that MSCs derived from different segments of the same umbilical cord (UC) showed significant difference in the expression of genes that are related to heart development and injury repair. We therefore hypothesized that those MSCs with high expression of above genes are more effective to treat MI and tested it in this study. Methods: MSCs were isolated from 3 cm-long segments of the maternal, middle and fetal segments of the UC (maternal-MSCs, middle-MSCs and fetal-MSCs, respectively). RNA-seq was used to analyze and compare the transcriptomes. We verified the effects of MSCs on oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD)-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis Results: Compared to fetal-MSCs and middle-MSCs, maternal-MSCs exhibited significantly higher expression of genes that are associated with heart development, such as GATA-binding protein 4 (GATA4), and myocardin (MYOCD). Coculture with maternal-MSCs reduced OGD-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis. In rats with MI, maternal-MSCs significantly restored cardiac contractile function and reduced the infarct size. Mechanistic experiments revealed that maternal-MSCs exerted cardioprotective effects by decreasing cardiomyocyte apoptosis, and promoting angiogenesis. Conclusion: Our data demonstrated that maternal segment-derived MSCs were a superior cell source for regenerative repair after MI. Segmental localization of the entire UC when isolating hUCMSCs was necessary to improve the effectiveness of clinical applications.
