Short-Term Cryopreservation Preserved the Function of MSCs from Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate.
Article in Cells, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) is increasingly recognized as a valuable orthobiologic, offering promising outcomes in reducing inflammation, alleviating pain for patients with osteoarthritis (OA) and various musculoskeletal conditions. However, BMAC contains a very low percentage of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), and multiple injections are often required with multiple harvests, which can lead to scarring at the extraction site and patient discomfort. This study aimed to determine whether freezing BMAC affects the function of MSCs in vitro and their capacity to repair articular cartilage in vivo using an OA rat model. BMAC was obtained from patients undergoing BMAC treatment. The in vitro results showed that the proliferation and multilineage differentiation of MSCs remained similar after being frozen for 4 weeks at -80 °C. In vivo, both fresh and frozen BMAC demonstrated significantly improved ICRS histology score of tibial plateau cartilage compared to the PBS control. No significant difference was found between fresh and frozen BMAC treatment groups. Our results suggest that the freezing process does not negatively affect the function of MSCs from BMAC for cartilage repair. These findings support the potential future applications of a single harvest with BMAC storage for multiple injections, thereby enhancing the tissue repair capabilities of BMAC.
