The cell-fate decision of dental follicle stem cells (DFSCs) with porcine corneal extracellular matrix (ECM).

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
Background/purpose: Extracellular matrix (ECM) may be useful as a natural scaffold for tissue engineering. Since dental follicle stem cells (DFSCs) share a similar embryonic origin with corneal keratocytes and endothelial cells and possess the ability to proliferate and differentiate, in this study, we investigate the potential of DFSCs to differentiate into corneal cells under the supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO Materials and methods: DFSCs were seeded onto the SC-CO Results: The DFSCs cultured on the ECM exhibit notable cell-ECM adhesion and the potential to primarily differentiate into keratocytes, with a partial capacity for differentiation into corneal endothelial cells, while the cells outside the ECM are weakly affected. Growth factor array analysis revealed changes in growth factor expression in different culture conditions, DFSCs, ECM, and DFSCs/ECM co-culture at various time points, indicating a dynamic shift in the microenvironment. Conclusion: The present study demonstrated that DFSCs cultured on the porcine corneal ECM can differentiate mainly into keratocytes-like and partially into corneal endothelial-like cells, exhibiting strong cell-ECM adhesion and regulation of growth factors. Provide insights into the therapeutic application potential of dental-derived stem cells and SC-CO
