Advancements in mesenchymal stromal cells for treating connective tissue disease-associated interstitial lung disease: from basic research to clinical application.
Review in Stem cell research & therapy, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a common complication associated with connective tissue disease (CTD). It is characterized by a progressive decline in lung function, significantly affecting prognosis and potentially leading to respiratory failure or even death. The primary pathological mechanisms behind ILD include abnormal immune system activation and pulmonary fibrosis. Current treatment options primarily include immunosuppressive agents, antifibrotic drugs, and oxygen therapy to alleviate symptoms. However, these treatments have notable limitations, including individual variability and uncertain long-term effectiveness, which pose significant challenges in managing CTD-associated ILD (CTD-ILD).In recent years, Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs) have gained considerable attention as a promising therapeutic option for CTD-ILD. This is due to their immunomodulatory, antifibrotic, and tissue repair properties. Both clinical and preclinical studies have shown the therapeutic potential of MSCs in this context. However, this article also discusses the challenges and limitations of MSC-based therapies, highlighting the need for further clinical studies to validate their effectiveness.
