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

Stem cell-based regenerative therapies, which harness the self-renewal and differentiation properties of stem cells, have been in the spotlight due to their widespread applications in treating degenerative, aging, and other, generally intractable diseases. Therapeutically effective hematopoietic stem cells, mesenchymal stem cells, embryonic stem cells, and induced pluripotent stem cells have been used in numerous basic and translational studies with exciting results. However, pre-/post-transplantation issues of poor cell survival and retention, uncontrolled differentiation, and insufficient numbers of cells engrafted into host tissues are the major challenges in stem cell-based regenerative therapies. Engineered biomaterials have adjustable biochemical and biophysical properties that significantly affect cell behaviors, such as cell engraftment, survival, migration, and differentiation outcomes, thereby enhancing the engraftment of implanted stem cells and guiding tissue regeneration. Therefore, the combination of stem cell biology with bioengineered materials is a promising strategy to improve the therapeutic outcomes of stem cell-based regenerative therapy. In this review, we summarize the advances in the modulation of behaviors of stem cells via engineered biomaterials. We then present different approaches to harnessing bioengineered materials to enhance the transplantation of stem cells. Finally, we will provide future directions in regenerative therapy using stem cells.
