1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Reversible immortalization holds great potential for primary tissue expansion to develop cell-based therapies as well as for basic research. Human olfactory ensheathing glia (hOEG) are promising candidates for treating spinal cord injury and for studying extrinsic neuroregenerative mechanisms. We used lentivectors with Cre/loxP technology to achieve reversible gene transfer of BMI1, SV40 large T antigen (TAg), a short hairpin RNA against p53 (shp53), and the catalytic subunit of telomerase (TERT) in primary cultures of hOEG from human donor cadaver olfactory bulbs. Several combinations of these genes were able to immortalize hOEG, conserving their antigenic markers and neuroregenerative properties but only those transduced by BMI1/TERT did not accumulate karyotypic alterations or increase senescence marker levels. Strikingly, these were also the only cells which continued to proliferate after transgene removal by Cre recombinase delivery, whereas hOEG immortalized by shp53 or TAg in combination with TERT entered into growth arrest and died. These data support the idea that immortalization and halting senescent changes are separate processes; hOEG immortalized by BMI1/TERT can revert back to their former primary cell replicative state when deimmortalized, whereas those transduced by the other combinations depend on the presence of these transgenes to maintain their aberrant proliferative state.
