Cell-based Therapies for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: Where Are We Now?
Article in American journal of respiratory and critical care medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
There is considerable interest in the potential for cell-based therapies, particularly mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) and their products, as a therapy for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). MSCs exert effects via diverse mechanisms including reducing excessive inflammation by modulating neutrophil, macrophage and T-cell function, decreasing pulmonary permeability and lung edema, and promoting tissue repair. Clinical studies indicate that MSCs are safe and well tolerated, with promising therapeutic benefits in specific clinical settings, leading to regulatory approvals of MSCs for specific indications in some countries.This perspective reassesses the therapeutic potential of MSC-based therapies for ARDS given insights from recent cell therapy trials in both COVID-19 and in 'classic' ARDS, and discusses studies in graft-vs.-host disease, one of the few licensed indications for MSC therapies. We identify important unknowns in the current literature, address challenges to clinical translation, and propose an approach to facilitate assessment of the therapeutic promise of MSC-based therapies for ARDS.
