Platelet-Rich Plasma Enhances Adhesion and Short-Term Retention of Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells to Articular Cartilage.
Article in Cells, 2026. 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
Mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) adhesion and retention at sites of cartilage degeneration are critical for improving cartilage repair. This study investigated whether platelet-rich plasma (PRP) enhances the adhesion and short-term retention of bone marrow-derived MSCs (BM-MSCs) and chondrocytes under in vitro and ex vivo conditions. BM-MSCs and chondrocytes were treated with PRP or pretreated with PRP for 10 or 30 min, and cell adhesion to collagen-coated surfaces was evaluated using a cell viability assay. Ex vivo adhesion and short-term retention of BM-MSCs on osteochondral discs with varying lesion severity were assessed by fluorescence imaging analysis. PRP significantly enhanced the adhesion of both BM-MSCs and chondrocytes in a time-dependent manner, with the 30 min PRP pretreatment group showing the greatest effect. BM-MSC attachment in the 30 min PRP pretreatment group was significantly higher than that in the untreated control group after 30 min of incubation (
