Evaluation of the Safety and Regenerative Potential of Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Their Extracellular Vesicles in a Transgenic Pig Model of Cartilage-Bone Injury In Vivo - Preclinical Study.

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
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint condition leading to disability. The lack of effective treatment for OA creates a need for the development of new therapeutic approaches that may rely on stem cells including mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) and their derivatives such as extracellular vesicles (EVs). The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of MSCs derived from adipose tissue (AT-MSCs) and umbilical cord (UC-MSCs) and their EVs on cartilage-bone injury in vivo, to identify the specimen with the highest regenerative potential for further clinical applications in patients with OA. Humanized pigs underwent cartilage-bone injuries followed by intraarticular administration of products containing AT-MSCs, UC-MSCs, AT-MSC-EVs or UC-MSC-EVs mixed with hyaluronic acid (HA) or HA alone (for comparison). After 6-m follow-up, almost-fully-healed cartilage-bone defects were observed in the AT-MSC- and UC-MSC-treated pigs, and the defects were filled primarily with hyaline cartilage. In AT-MSC-EV- and UC-MSC-EV-treated pigs, a partial cartilage-bone tissue repair was observed, and the defects were filled primarily with fibrocartilage. The control pigs demonstrated limited regeneration capacity. The microcomputed tomography parameters of the subchondral bone indicated the ongoing progression of OA in controls, whereas in the MSC- and MSC-EV-treated pigs, the parameters indicated the cessation of OA progression. Moreover, no serious side effects were observed after the administration of products containing MSCs or MSC-EVs. The results indicate the safety and regenerative activity of MSCs on injured tissues, which favors not only the healing and improvement of bone structure but also the formation of hyaline cartilage. Superior tissue repair was observed after the administration of products containing AT-MSCs. The treatment of OA with MSC-EVs needs further standardization.
