Bibliometric Analysis and Visualized Study of Research on Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Ischemic Stroke.
Review in Stem cell reviews and reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundOne of the major global causes of death and disability is ischemic stroke (IS). Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) emerge as a cell-based therapy for numerous diseases. Recently, research on the role of MSCs in ischemic stroke has developed rapidly worldwide. Bibliometric analysis of MSCs for IS has not yet been published, though.
aimThrough bibliometric analysis, the aim of this study was to assess the current state of research on MSCs in the field of ischemic stroke research worldwide and to identify important results, major research areas, and emerging trends.
methodsPublications related to MSCs in ischemic stroke from January 1, 2002, to December 31, 2022, were obtained from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC). We used HistCite, VOSViewer, CiteSpace, and Bibliometrix for bibliometric analysis and visualization. We employed the Total Global Citation Score (TGCS) to assess the impact of publications.
resultsThe bibliometric analysis included a total of 2,048 publications. The 1,386 papers used in this study were authored by 200 individuals across 200 organizations in 72 countries, published in 202 journals. Cesar V Borlongan published the most documents among high-productivity authors. Michael Chopp was the author with the highest average number of citations per paper, with an average paper citation time of 118.54. We found that research of MSCs in ischemic stroke developed rapidly starting in 2008. Neurosciences were the most productive journals, and Chinese researchers have produced the most research papers in this subject. The most cited article is "Systemic administration of exosomes released from mesenchymal stromal cells promotes functional recovery and neurovascular plasticity after stroke in rats".
conclusionThis study uses both numbers and descriptions to thoroughly review the research on MSCs related to IS. This information provides valuable experience for researchers to carry out MSCs' work on IS.
