Mechanisms of Potential Therapeutic Utilization of Mesenchymal Stem Cells in COVID-19 Treatment.
Review in Cell transplantation. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has lasted for over 3 years and has seriously affected the regular life trajectory of human beings. The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‑CoV‑2) has caused non-negligible harm to people's respiratory systems and multiple organs. Although the pathogenesis of COVID-19 has been fully elucidated, there is still a lack of effective and specific treatment for COVID-19. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) or MSC-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) by far have become the most promising candidates in preclinical studies and clinical trials, and MSC-related therapies have shown their potential to treat severe COVID-19. The multidirectional differentiation potential and immunomodulatory function of MSCs have allowed the cells to exert multiple cellular and molecular actions on different immune cells and organs. It is critical to understand the therapeutic roles of MSCs before entering the clinics for COVID-19 and other diseases. This review summarizes the recent progress of particular mechanisms underlying the immunomodulatory and tissue regenerative effects of MSCs toward COVID-19. We focused on discussing the functional roles of MSC-mediated effects on immune cell responses, cell survival, and organ regeneration. Besides, the novel discoveries and recent findings of MSC clinical application in patients with COVID-19 were highlighted. This will provide an overview of the current research on the rapid development of MSC-based therapies not only for COVID-19 but also for other immune-mediated/immune-dysregulating diseases.
