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

The immune-modulatory effects of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are widely used to treat inflammatory disorders, with indoleamine 2,4-dioxygenase-1 (IDO-1) playing a pivotal role in suppressing stimulated T-cell proliferation. Taking that three-dimensional (3D) cultures enhance MSCs' anti-inflammatory properties compared with two-dimensional (2D) cultures, the differentially expressed miRNAs were examined. Thus, we identified hsa-miR-4662a-5p (miR-4662a) as a key inducer of IDO-1 via its suppression of bridging integrator-1 (BIN-1), a negative regulator of the IDO-1 gene. The IDO-1-inducing potential of miR-4662a was conserved across primary MSCs from various donors and sources but exhibited variability. Notably, iPSC-derived MSCs (iMSCs) demonstrated superior IDO-1 induction and immune-modulatory efficacy compared with their donor-matched primary MSCs. Accordingly, iMSCs expressing miR-4662a (4662a/iMSC) exhibited stronger suppressive effects on T-cell proliferation and more potent suppressive effects on graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), improving survival rates and reducing tissue damage in the liver and gut. Our results point to the therapeutic potential of standardized, off-the-shelf 4662a/iMSC as a robust immune-modulating cell therapy for GVHD.
