The heart is susceptible to proinflammatory and profibrotic responses after myocardial injury, leading to further worsening of cardiac dysfunction. Important developments in the management of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction have reduced morbidity and mortality; however, these therapies focus on optimizing cardiac function through hemodynamic and neurohormonal pathways and not by repairing the underlying cardiac injury. The potential of cell-based therapy to reverse cardiac injury has received substantial attention. Herein are examined the phase II and III studies of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal STRO-1+ or STRO-1/STRO-3+ precursor cells in patients with ischemic and nonischemic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, addressing the safety and efficacy of cell-based therapy throughout multiple clinical trials, the optimal dose and the steps toward revolutionizing the treatment of heart failure.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 19 May 2025.
All research outputs
#20,826,013
of 32,683,917 outputs
Outputs from Future Cardiology
#271
of 536 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#181,195
of 387,870 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Future Cardiology
#4
of 13 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 32,683,917 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 35th percentile – i.e., 35% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 536 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.2. This one is in the 47th percentile – i.e., 47% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 387,870 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 51% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 13 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 69% of its contemporaries.
