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 therapy holds significant potential for many inflammatory diseases and regenerative medicine applications. However, delivery of therapeutic cells to specific disease sites after systemic administration without indiscriminate trafficking to other non-target tissues is a major limitation of current cell therapies. Here, we describe a novel nanocarrier-directed targeted cell delivery system that enables cell surface coating with dendrimer nanocarriers containing adhesion moieties to serve as a global positioning system "GPS" to guide circulating cells to targeted lesions and mediate the anchoring of cells at the inflammation site. By exploiting cell surface ligands/receptors selectively and/or molecular moieties that are highly expressed on activated endothelium in pathologic disease states, nanocarrier-coated cells containing the counterpart binding receptors/ligands can be enabled to specifically traffic to and dock at vasculature within target lesions. We demonstrate the efficacy of the I-domain fragment of LFA-1 (
