Molecular Biological Comparison of Pulp Stem Cells from Supernumerary Teeth, Permanent Teeth, and Deciduous Teeth for Endodontic Regeneration.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. 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
Supernumerary tooth-derived pulp stem cells (SNTSCs) hold promise for endodontic regeneration, yet little is known about the similarities and diversities of SNTSCs relative to other dental-derived mesenchymal stem cells. Herein, we compare the biological characteristics of SNTSCs with dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) and stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED). Cell proliferation, migration, and odontogenic differentiation potential, as well as viability and aging-related phenotype after long-term storage, were evaluated. Additionally, gene expressions during induced odontogenic differentiation were profiled by transcriptome sequencing. Our findings indicated that the SNTSCs outperformed the DPSCs but were inferior to the SHED in cell proliferation. The SNTSCs exhibited comparable migratory capacity to the SHED and surpassed the DPSCs. Of particular interest, the odontogenic differentiation potential followed the pattern of SHED > SNTSCs > DPSCs. After two years of storage, the SNTSCs showed weakness in resistance to apoptosis induced by lipopolysaccharide, whereas difference between the SNTSCs and SHED in stemness and senescence was not obvious. Transcriptome analysis revealed that upregulated genes in the SNTSCs were particularly enriched in inflammatory signaling pathways compared to both the DPSCs and SHED. Collectively, SNTSCs share many satisfactory features in proliferation and differentiation with SHED, which may serve as a promising alternative cell source for endodontic regeneration.
