Efficacy of Stem Cell Therapy for Interstitial Cystitis/Bladder Pain Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Preclinical Studies

Background

Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) is a refractory urological disorder for which effective disease-modifying treatments remain limited. This meta-analysis evaluates the preclinical efficacy of stem cell interventions for IC/BPS and establishes an evidence-based roadmap for clinical translation.
