Administration of Adipose-Derived Stem Cells Lowers the Initial Levels of IL6 and TNF-Alpha in the Rat Model of Necrotizing Enterocolitis.

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
Research in the field of stem cells in necrotizing enterocolitis has primarily focused on the curative role of specific cells-mostly bone marrow and amniotic fluid stem cells. The impact of stem cells on reducing inflammatory cytokine levels in the necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) model has been studied in accordance with the effects they pose on histopathology. Taking into consideration the possible paracrine mechanism of action of stem cells, our group hypothesized that lowering the initial levels of proinflammatory cytokines may be one of the mechanisms affecting the clinical outcome. A self-modified rat NEC model was used to show the effect of intraperitoneal administration of adipose derived stem cells on the initial levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alfa) in comparison with the interleukin levels in NEC animals and control animals without adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) injection. We showed a statistically significant difference in the levels of interleukins when comparing an ADSC injected group and an NEC group. This suggests that one of the mechanisms in which stem cells impact the clinical outcomes in NEC may be by alleviating the initial levels of proinflammatory cytokines.
