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

In regenerative medicine, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) constitute a promising therapeutic route for many diseases. The current quality-by-design guidelines do not clearly define a framework for MSC production. Here, we suggest and experimentally validate a model-based method to determine design spaces (DSs) for MSC cultivation. A kinetic model used in previous work was employed; part of the experimental data was used to re-estimate the maximum specific growth rate in the kinetic model and then calculate the prediction intervals of this parameter. Subsequently, regions of seeding density and harvesting time where both the upper and lower limits of growth predictions met the acceptable number of cells and confluency with given risk levels were defined as DSs. Finally, the established DS was validated with the remaining data; it allowed better predictions of the cell numbers and confluency under specific cultivation conditions and improved the overall robustness of MSC cultivation processes.
