1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Diabetes mellitus is associated with neural and micro- and macrovascular complications. Therapeutic options for these complications are limited and the delivery of mesenchymal stem cells into lesions have been reported to improve the healing process. In this work, the effects of the administration of a lineage of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells immortalized by the expression of telomerase (hBMSC-TERT) as a potential therapeutic tool for wound healing in diabetic rats were investigated. This is the first description of the use of these cells in diabetic wounds. Dorsal cutaneous lesions were made in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats and hBMSC-TERT were subcutaneously administered around the lesions. The healing process was evaluated macroscopically, histologically, and by birefringence analysis. Diabetic wounded rats infused with hBMSC-TERT (DM-TERT group) and the non-diabetic wounded rats not infused with hBMSC-TERT (CW group) had very similar patterns of fibroblastic response and collagen proliferation indicating improvement of wound healing. The result obtained by birefringence analysis was in accordance with that obtained by the histological analysis. The results indicated that local administration of hBMSC-TERT in diabetic wounds improved the wound healing process and may become a therapeutic option for wounds in individuals with diabetes.
