Efficacy and safety of umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cell-conditioned media for preventing and treating skin aging.
Article in World journal of stem cells, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundResearch has been increasingly conducted on the connection between mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-conditioned medium (MSC-CM) and aging. However, most studies have focused on adipose-derived MSC-CM (ADMSC-CM), resulting in a research bias. We hypothesized that umbilical cord-derived MSCs, being younger than adipose-derived MSCs, would be more suitable for overcoming aging-related processes.
aimTo assess the efficacy and safety of umbilical cord-derived MSC-CM (UCMSC-CM) for preventing and treating skin aging.
methods
resultsUCMSC-CM had a higher content of effective factors, stimulated higher proliferation of fibroblasts, and strongly inhibited melanin production in B16F1 cells. In aged mice, UCMSC-CM application increased skin thickness, the number of Ki-67-positive cells, and the area of collagen deposition. UCMSC-CM was more effective than ADMSC-CM in preventing and treating skin aging. Additionally, a safety evaluation of UCMSC-CM performed in various animal models indicated that it was safe even when used directly on the skin.
conclusionUCMSC-CM is effective and safe for preventing and treating skin aging.
