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

backgroundCell therapy has emerged as a revolutionary tool to repair damaged tissues by restoration of an adequate vasculature. Dental Pulp stem cells (DPSC), due to their easy biological access, ex vivo properties, and ability to support angiogenesis have been largely explored in regenerative medicine.

methodsHere, we tested the capability of Dental Pulp Stem Cell-Conditioned medium (DPSC-CM), produced in normoxic (DPSC-CM Normox) or hypoxic (DPSC-CM Hypox) conditions, to support angiogenesis via their soluble factors. CMs were characterized by a secretome protein array, then used for in vivo and in vitro experiments. In in vivo experiments, DPSC-CMs were associated to an Ultimatrix sponge and injected in nude mice. After excision, Ultimatrix were assayed by immunohistochemistry, electron microscopy and flow cytometry, to evaluate the presence of endothelial, stromal, and immune cells. For in vitro procedures, DPSC-CMs were used on human umbilical-vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), to test their effects on cell adhesion, migration, tube formation, and on their capability to recruit human CD14

resultsWe found that DPSC-CM Hypox exert stronger pro-angiogenic activities, compared with DPSC-CM Normox, by increasing the frequency of CD31

conclusionsOur results provide evidence that DPSCs-CM, produced under hypoxic conditions, can be proposed as a tool able to support angiogenesis via macrophage polarization, suggesting its use to overcome the issues and restrictions associated with the use of staminal cells.
