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

The efficacy of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) mediated regenerative therapies has been hindered by the senescence of them during long period cultures. Aged MSCs exhibit altered morphology, decreased stemmas, changed intercellular communication, and poor differentiation ability. Besides in physiological condition, upon transplantation of senescent MSCs, they are capable of activating both the innate and adaptive immune systems, playing a crucial role in preserving tissue homeostasis. Therefore, enhancing immunomodulation properties and preventing aging progress of MSCs to achieve successful future clinical applications seems necessary. This review delves into the current knowledge of the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms that promote MSCs senescence as well as the developed approaches for reversing or preventing MSCs aging. These include pre-treatment of MSCs with various types of molecules to inhibit aging process and implementation of different types of three-dimensional culture systems. In addition, the recently developed strategies to improve immunomodulatory properties of MSCs have been discussed. By addressing the limitations of aged MSCs and augmenting their immunomodulation, these approaches offer a promising avenue for the future of cell therapy and provide valuable tools for maximizing the effectiveness of MSCs therapy in biomedical applications.
