Effects of mesenchymal stromal cells on motor function and collagen in the skeletal muscles of rats with type I diabetes.

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
The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) transplantation on motor function and collagen organization in the muscles of rats with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Male Wistar rats were randomly assigned to three groups: control (C), diabetic (DM) and diabetic treated with MSCs (DM-MSCs). Diabetes was induced by streptozotocin (50 µg/kg). Bone marrow cells were isolated from the tibia and femur. After 10 weeks of DM induction, the DM-MSC rats received four i.p. injections of MSCs (1 × 106). Ten weeks after MSC transplantation, motor performance was evaluated by the rotarod test and the anterior tibial (TA) muscles were collected for morphometric and quantification of collagen birefringence by polarizing microscopy analysis. Motor performance of the DM group was significantly reduced when compared to the C group and increased significantly in the DM + MSC group. The TA muscle mass was significantly reduced in the DM and DM + MSC groups compared to the C group. The connective tissue increased in the DM group compared to the C group and decreased in the DM + MSC group. The percentage collagen birefringence decreased significantly in the DM group when compared to the C group and increased in the DM + MSC group. Motor performance was positively correlated with collagen birefringence and negatively correlated with percentage of connective tissue. The results indicate that MSC transplantation improves both motor function and the collagen macromolecular organization in type 1 DM.
