The use of gating technology in bioengineering insulin-secreting cells from embryonic stem cells.
Article in Cytotechnology, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Embryonic stem cells display the ability to differentiate in vitro into a variety of cell types. This process is induced by embryoid body formation, addition of several soluble growth factors to the culture medium and other strategies. However, none of the used factors is capable to drive differentiation to only one specific celltype. The use of gating technology has allowed to partially overcome this problem. The rational behind this technique is based on the transfection of stem cells with a transgene carrying expression cassettes for a cell type specific promoter, regulating expression ofa selectable marker to select one cell lineage from other cell lineages.Using this system, we have obtained insulin-secreting cells by transfecting mouse embryonic stem cells with a DNA construct providing resistance to neomycin under the control of the regulatory regions of the human insulin gene. Furthermore, gating technology has been successfully used to isolate other cell types such as cardiomyocytes and neural precursors from undifferentiated embryonic stem cells. This review focuses on the possibilities offered by this technology in embryonic stem cell bioengineering, mainly to obtain insulin-secreting cells. Advantages and considerations of this selection system will be also discussed.
