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

objectiveTreatment with human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) attenuated the clinical manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We investigated the metabolic mechanism whereby hUC-MSCs modify CD4

methodsThe study enrolled 30 untreated lupus patients and 20 sex, age, and body mass index matched healthy controls (HCs). CD4

resultsCompared with HCs, the enhanced glycolysis and mitochondrial oxygen consumption of SLE-CD4

conclusionsThe hUC-MSCs treatment inhibited overactive glucose metabolism of SLE-CD4
