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
Inflammatory and autoimmune diseases are among the most challenging disorders for health care professionals that require systemic immune suppression which associates with various side effects. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are capable of regulating immune responses, mainly through paracrine effects and cell-cell contact. Since MSCs are advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs), they must follow Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) regulations to ensure their safety and efficacy. In this study, we evaluated the immunomodulatory effects of GMP-compliant clinical grade MSCs obtained from four different sources (bone marrow, adipose tissue, Wharton's Jelly, and decidua tissue) on allogeneic peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Our results revealed that WJ-MSCs were the most successful group in inhibiting PBMC proliferation as confirmed by BrdU analysis. Moreover, WJ-MSCs were the strongest group in enhancing the regulatory T cell population of PBMCs. WJ-MSCs also had the highest secretory profile of prostaglandin E2 (PGE-2), anti-inflammatory cytokine, while interleukin-10 (IL-10) secretion was highest in the DS-MSC group. DS-MSCs also had the lowest secretion of IL-12 and IL-17 inflammatory cytokines. Transcriptome analysis revealed that WJ-MSCs had the lowest expression of IL-6, while DS-MSCs were the most potent group in the expression of immunomodulatory factors such as hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and transforming growth factor-β (TGF- β). Taken together, our results indicated that GMP-compliant Wharton's Jelly and decidua-derived MSCs showed the best immunomodulatory performance considering paracrine factors.
