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

Various studies have demonstrated that somatic differentiated cells can be reprogrammed into other differentiated states or into pluripotency, thus showing that the differentiated cellular state is not irreversible. These findings have generated intense interest in the process of reprogramming and in mechanisms that govern the pluripotent state. However, the realization that differentiated cells can be triggered to switch to considerably different lineages also emphasizes that we need to understand how the identity of mature cells is normally maintained. Here we review recent studies on how the differentiated state is controlled at the transcriptional level and discuss how new insights have begun to elucidate mechanisms underlying the stable maintenance of mature cell identities.
