A Tutorial for Isolating, Characterizing, and Inducing Presenescence in Human Periodontal Ligament and Dental Pulp Stem Cells.
Article in Current protocols, 2026. 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
For several years, scientists have focused on studying mesenchymal stem cells because of their ability for self-regeneration, their potential for differentiation into multiple lineages (e.g., osteogenic, chondrogenic, and adipogenic cells), and their low immunogenicity and remarkable capacity to modulate the immune system. The importance of these cells ranges from preserving tissue health and repairing injured tissues in their nearby areas, to their use in scientific investigation for the treatment of neurodegenerative, autoimmune, and cardiovascular diseases. Despite the availability of various tissue sources, such as bone marrow and adipose tissue, their collection and handling may not always be easily achievable. However, dental tissues, such as the pulp and periodontal ligament, are relatively accessible supplies that do not require complex or stressful interventions for the patient. Here, we provide a detailed description of each step involved in the isolation and characterization of mesenchymal stem cells from the pulp and periodontal ligament using monoclonal antibodies ensuring a high level of effectiveness. In addition, we also describe a technique to generate the cellular presenescence state. © 2026 The Author(s). Current Protocols published by Wiley Periodicals LLC.
