Core Tip	Mesenchymal stem cell transplantation can effectively reduce the pulmonary inflammatory response and alleviate the pathological damage of lung tissue in rats with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), thus playing a significant protective role in SAP-related lung injury. However, due to the limited number of included studies and heterogeneity among studies, the robustness of the existing conclusions is insufficient. Therefore, multi-center, large-sample, rigorously designed randomized controlled trials combined with standardized stem cell preparation and administration regimen are needed to further systematically evaluate its efficacy, safety and long-term prognosis, so as to provide a higher level of evidence for clinical application.
