Efficacy of stem cells therapy for Crohn’s fistula: a meta-analysis and systematic review

This study explores how stem cell-based therapies could help repair or even replace damaged cartilage in joints, which is a major issue in conditions like osteoarthritis. The researchers focus on using mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which can develop into different types of cells, including cartilage cells. They review how these cells work, how they can be applied to damaged joints, and the challenges involved in making these therapies effective and widely available. The study highlights the potential for stem cells to improve joint health and reduce the need for surgeries like knee replacements in the future.
